I recently had the pleasure of photographing baby Isabella when she was just a few days old.  She was just so sweet, and such a good girl for me! Nice and sleepy for the first half of the session, and so good even while she was awake.  It was really great meeting her and her mommy and daddy and witnessing the love they have for each other already. Hope you enjoy your sneak peek!

August 5, 2009

I recently had the pleasure of meeting little Eleanor and her mommy and daddy.  Eleanor wasn’t a happy camper when I got there, but she calmed down quickly and was so good for me! She is just such a cutie..and look at those beautiful blue eyes! Enjoy the sneak peek!

Today I got to meet baby Jaakko who is almost 2 weeks old and just beautiful! His mommy and daddy love him so much and it was really obvious how proud they are of him. He’s a curious little guy and didn’t sleep a wink for the three hours I spent with them…can’t say I blame him though, I’d probably be a bit freaked out if someone was taking my picture with a camera bigger than my head too ;)

It was great seeing you guys again, enjoy your sneak peek!

Casting Call - Newborns!

February 9, 2009

I am looking for 3 newborns to add to my portfolio, so I’m offering a complimentary 2-4hr session (150€ value) + 8×10in print of your choice for the first 3 people to contact me! I only require a signed model release and a deposit of 25€ which will then be applied as a print credit to reserve your session. All prints and images (including high resolution digital images) will be available for purchase at 20% off listed prices, but there is no obligation to buy.

The session must take place by August 15th, and the baby must be younger than 10 days old at time of session. It is also important to understand that newborn sessions require a lot of patience. When I schedule your session, I make sure not to have any other obligations that day and you should do the same. This is because your baby will ‘lead’ the session and depending on his/her mood the session can take up to 4 hours. This is also why it is so important for the baby to be under 10 days old…the younger they are the more sleepy and cooperative they will be. The older they get, the more curious they become and  can be very alert and often fussy, which makes it almost impossible to get them into cute, snuggly positions.

Please send me an email if you are interested or would like more information!

Robin: Can you give me about 10 months and then I´m in!!
