Photography Newborn: The cutest cheeks you ever saw!

Really, I mean it. And to prove my point, I am going to present a photo from the newborn session before I write any further.

Here you go!

Photography Newborn - The cutest cheeks you ever saw

Seriously, aren’t they the cutest cheeks you’ve ever seen?

See what I am saying. All throughout the session, I can’t control myself. My heart goes “awwww”, but my mind says “stop it. let’s get these moments captured before she wakes up”. It was a conflict of emotions. But neither one of them was the winner or the loser. The heart and the mind balanced together to find the perfect poses and outfit. A balance just like her name. Did you know that the name Olivia is “an admirable balance of strength and femininity” (thanks for the information Nameberry.com)

Love how the color spreads behind Olivia, and her expressions. Photography newborn is all about expressions.

A big round of applause for an awesome mom who actively participated in planning the session

The super mom who actively participated! Bravo!

Another great thing – mom was a perfect partner in planning the session. I believe she browsed the entire site, and shared photos and photography newborn sessions that she loved. During the initial consultation, we discussed color preferences – she liked whites, creams, pinks, and mint, backgrounds – that look plush and soft. I encourage all parents who come for newborn photography to ask questions and plan sessions together so the results are awesome, just like in this case.

That said, let me not keep you away from seeing photos of the cutest cheeks 🙂
