THINGS I HEAR AT ALMOST EVERY NEWBORN SESSION:
1. “I didn’t know what would fit” y’all. The amount of times I’ve told my husband who is still wearing the same shirt he had in high school “your body hasn’t changed 516728 times in the last 4 years” I GET IT. My client closet gets used most by my newly postpartum mamas. I see so many photo getting rid of their client closets but I can’t do that specifically for y’all. If I can take this one thing off your mind for your photos and bring something that makes you feel beautiful, I’m happy to do it.
2. You’ll never ever ever find me mad about a feeding break. Take your time. I’m not going anywhere or annoyed in any way.
3. Baby acne. It’s such a tough balance. I love to get your session in around the 2 week mark but also that time frame usually lines up with the arrival of baby acne. I have my ways to edit it out as best I can! If you’re nervous about it, send me a photo! I’ll be honest with you about what I can do with it and if we should try and wait it out.
4. Bruises are easy. I got you.
5. The way your husband is alway so proud of you. I didn’t realize how much I could love my husband until he not only changed my babies diapers but had to help with mine postpartum. Y’all have just gone through life changing events and the love feels both brand new and also exhausted. I love to hear it.
6. Your home should be chaotic right now. You’re not sleeping, you’re recovering, and someone new just moved in with all their belongings. I live with three kids. Chaos will never phase me.
7. No need to be nervous! I have seen it all. I have trips and tricks and all the ways to help baby be as happy as they can be. It’s never ever what you’ve built it up in your head to be.
