Featured Session { Kana Jaclyn } | Newborn Portraits

Because I’ve had zero time to post sneak peeks this week…and because she’s just too cute to keep to myself…I’ve got another featured session for you all. Click the “Play” button below to watch beautiful 3 day old Kana Jaclyn’s newborn session. :)

Remember…

If you’re expecting a new baby the best time to schedule your newborn session is BEFORE she arrives. That’s what Kana’s Mommy did!smiley_two_thumbs_up

Sneak Peek { Kana } | Cape Coral Newborn Portraits

Cape Coral Newborn Portraits by lifeXpressions photographyI’m sharing this sneak peek a little out of order because I know Dad may have to leave the country on business before he gets a chance to see all the session proofs. Hopefully this little peek will tide him over until his return. :)

Yesterday I traveled to Cape Coral to photograph the most adorable 3 day old baby girl, Kana. What a little sweetheart she was, and such a good little model! Of course it helps that she was still so new, at one point I even commented to Dad how wonderful it was that she naturally preferred to be positions that I normally have to work just a little to achieve once the baby is a week old. We’d try to get her into one spot and she’d just flop back into a smooshy little ball (shown above). Just goes to show how quickly they adjust to life outside the womb and having the ability to really s-t-r-e-t-c-h out.

I always encourage Mom to use the session time to relax and enjoy a little break while I work. When Mom stepped away for a quick shower I seized the opportunity to capture a few adorable photos of Daddy with his little girl. I’ll share one for now, the others I’m saving as special treat for Mom when she views her proofs.Cape Coral Newborn Photography by Terrilyn of lifeXpressions

I’m so glad she changed her mind, she looks just stunning and I have no doubt these special moments of the three of them together will be images she’ll cherish as she watches her little angel baby grow.Cape Coral Newborn photography by lifeXpressions

Sneak Peek { Palmer & Parker } | Naples Twin Photography

What could possibly be cuter than one squishy newborn baby?? Why TWO newborn babies of course! I really do love photographing multiples. Sure, it can be a little more time consuming than your average newborn session but that really just means you get twice the cuteness when all is said and done. ;)

Meet 5 day old Palmer and Parker of Naples. These little guys were completely adorable and such good little models for me. Not only did they let me capture some seriously sweet portraits of them snuggled up together, they actually took turns waking up so I could capture a few solo portraits for Mom too. lifexpressions photography family portrait session, fort myers florida, on location photographer, naples beach photographer, naples newborn photography, sibling portraits, sanibel beach portraits

I really enjoy having the opportunity to break out my macro lens to capture all their little parts. At only five days old these two were still very brand new complete with peeling fingers and toes that were still trying to adjust to life outside of the womb. We all know how quickly these little ones grow, especially during that first year. I’m so glad I was there to capture those little details, now Mom and Dad will be able to look back and remember those wrinkly little fingers and toes long after the boys head off to college.

Alright, I hear you giggling at me. I get it. Yeah, right now college does seem like it’s light years away but it really does sneak up on you faster than you might think. Trust me on this one, my oldest turned 18 just last week! I swear if I close my eyes and concentrate I can still hear his little boy laugh and the thump-thump-thump of him running through the house playing hide and seek. >sigh<

My point; Cherish the details. Absorb every inch of your children and revel in the mundane. As time passes you start to realize it’s those little, often overlooked, details in life that you miss the most.

Last week I traveled to Naples for a newborn session with 7 day old Bryce and his wonderful parents. As you can see by their expressions above, they are completely smitten with this handsome little fella already. Can you blame them? I mean look at this sweet face…

Sneak Peek { Andre } | Estero Newborn Photographer

Just yesterday I shared a sneak peek from a maternity session and mentioned I’d be heading out to photograph their new little boy later in the day. Well, I did, and oh my stars is he not the cutest little guy ever? Seriously! I have so many favorite images from this session I just had to come right back to the blog and share a few with you all.

Sneak Peek (Madeline) / Naples Newborn Photographer

Before Terrilyn left today for some much needed time off, she asked me to squeeze a couple of sneak peeks in while she is away.  Without further adieu, let me introduce sweet Madeline!   Isn’t she a cutie pie?  I love her tiny little toes, and the serenity on her face as she sleeps.  If only I could sleep like that!

MadelineMadelineMadelineWhat a sweetie!  And Mom/Dad, if you’re reading this, your pictures will be here soon!

Sneak Peek { Zoee } | Cape Coral Newborn Portraits

In just over a week I’ll be leaving, on a jet plane…but I will be back again! I’m just going to visit with my dear friend and fellow photographer Connie Groah in Annapolis for some much needed R&R. Of course one can’t really run away for some R&R without thoroughly wearing herself out before hand. So in keeping with that theory I’ve managed to schedule myself back to back sessions for the next ten days along with mountains of proofing that must be tackled before I can take off on my little adventure. Not to worry, Kelly will be available to answer questions and inquiries while I’m running around like a mad woman. I hear she’s got something totally cute in the works for this coming week’s Trendy Tuesday too!

Last week I traveled to the middle-of-no-where which, according to google maps is somewhere in North Cape Coral. *grin* The plan was visit with, and of course photograph, one very sweet two month old baby girl. Of course the instant I met little Zoee I knew it had been worth the drive, isn’t she precious?! I just had to pop in and sneak peek a few for Mom and Dad as soon as I could. :)
