hours old Newborn Photography | Atlanta, GA
I was honored to have a Hours Old session with this sweet family last week. They had welcomed their fourth child into the world the night before, and were glowing.
When I first arrived, Jaxon's Daddy gave him his first bath, at which point Jaxon took the opportunity to pee all over his Daddy's pants. I love that shot--Jaxon's Mamas laughing in the background plus the shock on his Daddy's face. It's not a picture of a "perfect" family, but it is authentic, which to me makes it perfect.
Towards the end of our session Grandma arrived with the other three children, and I watched as they nervously met their baby brother. Each sibling took a turn holding him, and they all couldn't stop staring! Adorable. And I can't help but imagine them looking at these pictures as adult siblings. What a gift.
A Hours Old session is a one hour daytime session before you are discharged from the hospital with your new baby, or soon after you arrive home. It's a newborn session that tells the story of your baby's first hours. I think it's fun to time the session to include other family members meeting your baby for the first time.
Email me to schedule your Hours Old session! I pencil in your due date, and then I am on-call while I wait to hear from you that labor has started. Once your baby is born we touch base and schedule our session. After our session I will get you a few "sneak peek" photos that you can post on social media to announce your child's arrival.
