These December babies have been soooooo good to me, I can’t get enough. Lydia was in for her petite newborn session and she kept that trend going. I swear, December has brought, not only the cutest babies ever, but they’ve all had great hair, and they’ve slept for their sessions! I’m scared to even put it out there, I don’t want to jinx myself. But I’m obsessed.
What’s a petite session you ask? Well it’s a baby only newborn session. I get it, you might not feel up to getting in photos, but you don’t want to miss this adorable newborn window. Then this session is for you!
I typically use one table backdrop, but pee (and poop) happens, so sometimes if I don’t get my whole posing workflow done before an accident happens I switch colors out.
After the table backdrop we move into props. And I try to squeeze as many in as I can before baby is over it. Lydia got in quite a few, and even a bonus holiday setup since she was born in December. I wanted to keep it simple, and a little traditional with the red color, but not scream Christmas. I love the final results!
