There are so many things to plan and buy when you are growing a tiny human. And, sometimes booking a newborn session slips the list. For those sleepy and posed newborn photos, it is best to photograph your baby under 2 weeks of age. That said, I have photographed older newborns and we always manage cherished shots. This gorgeous mama wanted a newborn session including family images but with her baby already over five weeks of age, we decided to take it outdoors and create more of a family session with a focus on newborn prop shots.

Gorgeous Gabriel was awake for the majority of our time but we did manage some sleepy shots. And his big sister, Victoria, was full of love and laughter with her new bestie brother. How pretty is this new family of 4?
