Sneak Peek { Alexia } – Naples Newborn Photography

One of my favorite things about being an on location photographer is the challenge that comes from walking into a new home for the first time, assessing the lighting, the decor and of course the parents and being able to incorporate who they are into the session itself. Mom and Dad have such a playful fun relationship I truly enjoyed getting to know them a bit and watching them together. I’d like to introduce to you their new bundle of sweetness, Alexia. 10 days old and lifeXpressions first 2009 newborn! Isn’t she just perfect?!

Shortly after I arrived at their Naples home for their maternity session I learned that Dad is a doctor and a musician and that music is a pretty big part of their lives. I think the stream of guitars and the music room upstairs was my first clue, some days I can be very perceptive. *giggle* Seeing all of the instruments immediately set my brain in motion wondering how I could incorporate their love of music into their portraits. At times it was a bit of a challenge but we did manage to capture it in both sessions, hopefully Mom and Dad will agree with me that it was worth the effort! :)

Sneak Peek, Mason

Well, it’s almost time to call it a night but I simply couldn’t turn in without taking a moment to introduce you to Naples newest heartbreaker, Mason. J & D have been fabulously fun clients to work with over the last few years and I am truly honored that they invited me back to share this very special time with them once again.

Mason was only 9 days old at the time of our session but already following in his big brother’s footsteps and being quite the little charmer. What a handsome little dude! 0907sommer04bw_3

J & D, you guys make the most darling little boys! Thanks again, I’ll be in touch really soon with your proofs and announcements!! :)

Family fun

Today I’m going to share with you a very fun loving family from Naples. Kinda makes you want to jump in bed and have a pillow fight of your own doesn’t it? They already have one WAY cute 2 yr old boy, Noah, soon they’ll be welcoming a sweet little girl into the family. If she has half the energy of her big brother Mom & Dad are going to be in for quite a ride! :)

Favorite things

One of my favorite things about this job would have to be the relationships formed and the ability to watch these special families grow over time. This little angel is Sydney, she is a resident of Naples Florida. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting her before, during that shy stage that many soon-to-be two year olds go through. When I had the honor of photographing her lovely family again it was so rewarding to see how much she had grown socially in just a few months. Suddenly the little girl who was very cautious and unsure of me had grown into this lively little lady who was  quite eager to show me everything she had learned to do in the last few months. Sydney is expecting a baby sister soon, I’ve been sworn to secrecy on the name as I hear that is still up for debate but I have a hunch Mom and Sydney may be winning. ;)

I look forward to meeting that little angel in April!

Well, it IS that time of year. ;) What a sweet little guy, eh? This is Jack of Fort Myers, his session was the last one before the Christmas deadline and he was a dream to work with. What a great way to wrap up the season!

Someone has been sipping that water again!

I warned you guys didn’t I? That’s alright, I do not get tired of these sessions and all the sweet babies are definitely welcome so drink up! Today I’m introducing Crystal and Neal of Bonita Springs to you. They are expecting a boy in just a few more weeks. Beautiful couple, very fun to work with.

Snuggly, wuggly baby

So many adorable newborns lately and several more on the way. Some make me work harder than others, ;o), but that’s ok. In the end they are all precious as can be. This is sweet Marin or Cape Coral.
