The little one above is the work of Arriana and Evan. And believe it or not, Arriana and I connected up through an earlier posting on the very page you're reading right now. She saw the posting and then asked about maternity and newborn photography in a Facebook comment. From there we were off and running. We started with a pregnancy shoot done at the beach (the results of which you can see by clicking here).

Fast forward to today, and here we are, with Ellorie only eight days old. And she's just as much a sweetheart as she looks. For this shoot, we really took our time to make sure that we caught her at her best. We also had planned appropriately, using Pinterest to really map out what looks we would see if Ellorie would provide for us. And she didn't disappoint:

Being a part of this with Arriana and Evan was such a great experience. Having done both the maternity and newborn photography, I really feel like I got to see these three become a family. Right in front of my eyes.

Thank you for taking the time to look over these shots. They were a dream to take and I hope that you enjoyed them.

And on a separate note, I recently put together some tips on how to be comfortable when being photographed. I've been doing this for a long time now, and I love helping to bring out the actual personality of the person I am shooting. Just sign up for my newsletter below and you'll get three days of tips on what you can before and during your time in front of the camera to make it total a walk in the park!

Best,

Jamie
