Today I wanted to do a creative shoot. This is something I had been planning for a while. It was cold out, and I didn’t feel like taking Sulaiman outside to entertain him so what better fun for kids then BUBBLES! I also wanted to do this before my baby is too big to fit into our sink. Ok, this sink is pretty roomy but still today was the day and I took advantage of my babies love for water and bubbles. I quickly cleaned up the kitchen (cause lets me honest, it does not look like this on a normal day with 3 littles humans running around). I was going for a minimalist, crisp and clean look and look how STUNNING it turned out!!!

I met this sweet family on a wet and rainy day this Fall. They were very close to moving into this new home they just had built. Although it was drizzling, we continued shooting to capture some beautiful family shots. My goal was to find spots under the trees to keep from getting wet. Their three boys and darling daughter did great as we continued capturing some great shots! These will be the first family photos in this new house where they will continue to build many precious memories in.

You can not notice it, but this was one of the coldest days of my fall sessions! It was not only a sunset session, but also an overcast day. So although we were unable to get that sun setting( ahhh I love me some sunset lighting!!), I still believe this families photos turned out STUNNING! The mother did an extremely great job in coordinating the outfits of her precious daughters. I mean, look at them! They were not only beautiful but also the sweetest. That POP of red just made my day!
Nov 2019 Family Fall Session |Philadelphia Photographer
This sunset session has to be my dream session! I met this beautiful family on a crisp cold day in November 2019. And although Fall is such a busy time for photographers, I was glad this family got a a spot for one of the most GORGEOUS sunset sessions I have captured. The kids jumped around and had a blast! I tried to keep them active to stay warm. The one thing that helped besides moving around were the beautiful ponchos that the mother said were sent from Argentina. I must say, I am SO happy that they were part of the session! They were sentimental and there is nothing better than having meaning behind these memorable photos.
New Hybrid Newborn Sessions Open!

Lifestyle and Posed Newborn Photos in Bryn Mawr | Philadelphia Newborn Photographer|
I have started a new type of newborn photography service to cater my growing clients based around Philadelphia, Pa. Its called Hybrid Newborn Photography. Its basically a combination of cozy wrapped newborn baby photos with some candid shots of the entire family. I feel that this works especially well at most clients at-home sessions. This type of package allows for the new baby to be the star in all of its individual poses in various wraps, baskets, etc. While at the same time, I get to capture the true surroundings of where the baby will grow with the lifestyle part of the session.
I got to try this Hybrid version of newborn photography at my recent session with sweet returning clients based in Bryn Mawr. I have worked with this family in the past. I did their maternity session, as well as first newborn and one year old photos of their first born. I was pretty excited to meet them again.
Baby Mann did not disappoint:) He was the most calm and sleepy baby I have worked with. He was totally chill which in return made the whole atmosphere at ease. I got to photograph him in 2 different wraps, one outfit and various baskets/crates. The parents were totally relaxed and kept the newborns brother (who is 3 now) busy while I did the babies’ individual shots.
Upon completion of the newborn posed shots, I gathered the family in two rooms (one of which is the babies nursery) and took photos of them mesmerized at the beautiful blessings surrounding them. These family shots are super important. I remember taking photos of the first time my children got to meet their siblings. In the same way, Baby Manns older brother was super excited for this new addition. This lifestyle part allows me to capture the raw interactions.
This Hybrid Version of Newborn Photography is something I feel makes everyone feel at ease. It gives the newborn baby maximum attention with the individual shots as well as caters to those that want to remember how it actually was to hold that new baby around the house that they will grow up in.
Check out the newborn session below and if you are interested in this kind of setup, be sure to contact me here ! I would love to capture you and your new bundle as soon as possible!
