Studio Newborn Portrait Session | Baby Jack

For Baby Jack’s newborn session we shot in my studio in Pittsburgh.  I like to create a lifestyle look even when shooting in my studio, so I created some soft and cozy spots of Jack to cuddle with mom & dad.

I like the natural style of these newborn images, with lots of brown, grey, white, and other neutral tones to create a timeless image.

For these high key white backdrop images, I shot the family with my largest soft box behind them.  Baby Jack’s smile in the last image is just one of many I captured during this session!

Though I generally prefer color, studio images look great in black & white as well.

This is my favorite grey seamless backdrop–I have been using this same savage grey tone for years, and I change it up, lighter & darker, with my lights.  I think the lighter neutrals & lovely textures on mom & dad look great.

Seth Isaac was an absolute angel, and what an alert and attentive little boy.  Look at that bright expression!  He didn’t miss anything…..

Seth (and of course, Mom and Dad) loves primary colors, as you can see, and he is blessed with crafty family members (thanks, Grandma!), who have made quilts, afghans and sock monkeys for his comfort, enjoyment and coziness.  Mom particularly wanted shots of Seth cuddling up with these very special hand made goodies.

And, NASA, take note:  The nursery has an outer space theme, complete with stuffed planets!  (I can relate — my Jonah is such a “space nut” that he will name all the planets for you, in order, complete with their moons.  All you have to do is ask!)

Seth also has an impressive number of Pirates bobbleheads, so I’m guessing his next shoot might have a baseball theme.

Photo shoots really take a lot out of a little guy.  Night night, Seth!
