Half-Marine, Half-Coastie – Newborn Session

Friends Sarah and Joe welcomed their brand new baby girl, Samara, about three weeks ago, and I was so excited to take the photos for her first portrait session! It was a nice afternoon of hanging out around their house while waiting in between feedings for photos. Joe is a Marine, and Sarah is Coast Guard, so Samara is a dual military branch baby! We had fun with the shoot, from sticking her inside her daddy’s brand new racing tires, to enjoying all her little expressions (and helping her make them!). Check out how adorable this girl is:

Finally, here’s a photo of Sarah and Joe’s first baby, their pup named 9mil. Poor little guy, he’s a little bummed out he’s not the baby of the family anymore, but he still watches over Samara!

So, after a day of experimenting with setups, often with only a few minutes to shoot before baby started fussing, I’ve learned quite a lot about shooting young infants! However, I feel that the shoot was a success, and came away with some sweet images. Enjoy!

Tomorrow, I have a shoot with this darling 3-week-old girl! My first tiny-baby shoot! Exciting!

But today I couldn’t resist finishing a roll of black and white film after the planning session with her mom.

Yup, it should be lots of fun. Stay tuned!
