Pint-Sized Presley {Austin Newborn Photographer}

Presley was SUCH a good baby for her newborn session!  Coming in to my studio at about 5.5 pounds and 10 days old, she was so tiny.  And so sweet.  And she gets the award of "Most Newborn Smiles in One Session!"  The girl was so smiley, and it just melted me.

I loved her parents' reaction when they were watching their slideshow of images for the first time at the ordering appointment.  You would think that the newness of that would wear off, but it never does... I love it every time, because as a mama myself, I know how powerful those newborn pictures are when your baby is fresh and oh-so-tiny.  They grow so fast!

Enjoy a sneak peek into our session with Little Miss Smiley.

Here is a funny little outtake from the session while we were letting her sink into a deep sleep.  She loved the white noise from my phone SO much.  So much that she even cuddled the phone a bit.  :)

What is a Cake Smash? {Austin Baby Photographer}

Cake Smash sessions are quickly becoming one of my most popular offerings.  I have three of them next week!  How sweet (pun intended) is that?!

Some people have never heard of a cake smash, so I wanted to explain it here.  A Cake Smash session is perfect for a first or second birthday, and is such a fun and unique way to celebrate (and remember in pictures) your baby hitting that amazing milestone!

{Please note: Below is what our 2014 Cake Smash Sessions included.  Pricing/options are subject to change.  Please contact me for most updated pricing/package info.}

It is an hour long weekday session in my photography studio (click here for a tour), and includes 10 digital images on CD with print release.  Many clients also purchase an adorable collage of images from the session to hang in baby's nursery, or additional prints and/or digital files. 

We start out with a set up where baby is wearing a regular outfit.  Then we work our way into the cake smash part of the session.  And we finish things up with a bubble bath, which is a baby favorite, and provides us with the cutest images!

{If you're looking for adorable Cake Smash outfits, I know the perfect place, and let clients know that in their consultation email.}

Here is what a Cake Smash session with Miles of Smiles Photography looks like from start to finish.  This is one of my newborn clients... all grown up at one year old!  Love her little smile.

Warming up to the camera... 

Enjoying her delicious cake... {I think she would have sat there quietly all day picking at her cake with that spoon if we would have let her!}

All smiles in the tub!

It's amazing how much babies change in just one year.  See how little Ellie changed in her first year?  I feel so blessed to get to capture memories like this for my clients to enjoy as artwork in their homes for many years to come, and even to pass on to their babies when they are grown.  

Contact me if you want a Cake Smash session of your own.  And remember - my calendar fills 2-3 months in advance (and 3-4 months in advance for fall). 

Sweet Stella - 4 Days New {Austin Newborn Photographer}

I loved getting to do little Stella's newborn session!  We did more of a lifestyle session in her family's home, and they were such an adorable family to work with.  I love meeting wonderful families, and it's extra neat when they live in my own neighborhood.

She was so tiny, and other than my own babies, she was the newest-newborn I have worked with ~ at just four days old.  {I do most newborn sessions between 5-14 days old.}  Enjoy a sneak peek into our morning together.
