Newborn Orange County Photographer
The Asher Family - Orange County Newborn Photographer
I am SO behind on blogging because it honestly is always such a chore by the time I have a second to catch up ! I have been out shooting almost everyday and working hard to get client galleries edited & sent- that blogging tends to get put on the back burner! I can’t wait to share SO many unblogged (is that a word?, ha.) sessions with you guys though! Here to the sweet little Asher family and their Orange County Newborn Session.
You guys might remember these two new parents from their recent maternity session with me . Well Baby Owen is here and so incredibly loved, not just by his parents but by his fur-siblings too ;) I love getting to capture those beginning moments of becoming a family , I witness the powerful love that exists between the parents and their new little bundle of joy and it melts me. I am such a mushy heart behind my lens , I seriously have the best.job.ever. I can’t say that enough.
The Schwartz Family // Newport Beach Newborn Session // Nursery Inspiration
This sweet family invited me into their home to document their new little addition to the family . When I entered into this nursery that this mamma pieced together and designed for her little girl arriving , my jaw about dropped. For starters, every last detail was so intentional and the color palette was pretty much a photographers dream! Second, big brother Fin was super excited to show off his new little sister and definitely stole the show (in a good way) Every mamma wants their baby’s first ever room to be special and Nicole definitely nailed it ! I mean c’mon, look at that hand made bracelet with baby girls name spelt out, how stinkin cute & personal is that?!
The aesthetic of this nursery is honestly to die for and I couldn't stop swooning over it our entire session, clicking away on my camera.

The unspeakable beauty of motherhood //
Motherhood is truly one of my favorite things to photograph. When a client books me to come and document this new chapter in their lives, I feel so honored. I feel honored that I get to watch your first interactions with this little being you created, that I get to even sometimes hold your precious gift in my arms before positioning her for a shot, that I get to witness this incredible bond between you & your baby! I can remember after having my first child the greatest adjustment for me was not the lack of sleep, the endless laundry, or the huge responsibility that I felt, but the intense sense of vulnerability I experienced with my heart now outside my body. I had never felt so deeply about anything – ever. There is something about holding this precious little defenseless person that simultaneously evokes delirious joy and overwhelming helplessness. You would give your own soul to see them safe and wholly evolved into the fullness of their destiny. You would pay any price; sacrifice any goal; reach any compromise to make them content and complete. THIS is motherhood and getting to document these first moments for you all- it leaves my heart so full as I lay my head down to sleep. Motherhood is simply beautiful.
I thought I would share this 12 month milestone book I created for our little munchkin , who turns O N E Y E A R this week! Unreal how time flys! Each month I would take her photo to document how much bigger she had gotten, and I would add a written piece to each page about her growth and accomplishments. This is a clean and simple way to document your baby's first year! I used BLURB to create this memory keepsake book for my little Audrey.
