Another Sweet Baby Boy.... Olympia Newborn Baby Photography

 My friend Camille had a little baby boy the day after Christmas, she is also a wonderful photographer here in Olympia. (Camille Dawn Photography)  I know that it's not easy photographing your own baby, even photographers. I wish I had someone around to help photograph my babies when they were born, I was too exhausted and busy just being a mom to a newborn.  So I had Camille come over to my house to have some fun photographing her sweet little boy.  Camille brought the adorable orange hat, monkey, green blanket and basket all from Liams nursery.  He was such a good baby!   Thank you Camille for endulging me in some sweet baby goodness!!!  ~Michaela

Sweet Sweet Baby..... Olympia Newborn Photography

Oh how I LOVE photographing newborns!  There is nothing like that incredible moment in your life, it is unforgettable and magical.  I love everything about the setting; the cute clear bassinet, the chord clip, the receiving blanket, the ID bracelet, the wrinkles, the babies are so mooshy and they change quickly after the first few days of life.  The babies are also pretty pink so most newborn photography is shown in black&white but I love the color too, it is a moment like none-other and you want to remember every detail!  I am working on a special newborn package for 2010 that will include some very special one of a kind gifts, so if you are expecting a baby or know someone that is, keep this very special session in mind.  I will also be offering a gift registry for baby showers!

Newborn just 6 days old....

This is beautiful baby Roberto!!  He was so alert, he didn't want to miss a thing his entire session, so no sleepy baby images.  His eyes are so sweet and beautiful anyway and that hair!... Oh my goodness! 

Sweet Baby Jaxon

Ever since I was a little girl I loved babies, I dreamed of becoming a pediatrician, a preemie nurse or a pre-school teacher.  I knew that whatever I did when I grew up had to have something to do with babies.  Photographing babies is a dream come true!  I love every stage, but photographing a newborn, and just one day old is very special!  ~Michaela

Another 1 day old newborn hospital session....

A little girl this time!  I can't tell you enough how much I enjoy doing these sessions.  The day of the session was my first time meeting the parents, they received a gift certificate for a shower gift from one of my loyal clients.  We had such a nice time chatting, getting to know eachother and took our time waiting for their sweet little girl to nurse.  The baby also decided she liked being bundled up and sucking on her two little fingers best.  I am so honored to have been able to be there and capture such an incredible day in their lives!  I can't wait for her first tutu session!!!
