This sweet girl was teeny tiny when she came in for her newborn photos at just 5 pounds. Maren was a great little sleeper and loved to be curled up or have her arms stretched out during her newborn photo session, making my job look easy with her adorable photos.

Maren and her family came in when she was just about 5 days old. Her mom had asked for lots of girly things with pink and flowers, so we went with soft pinks and creams which were lovely. I had to tie many of my newborn headbands up in the back after she was in the studio, though, as her head was so small many headbands wanted to fall off!

Maren loved being curled upon the moon prop and I added some flowers to make it girly. She also didn’t mind being in my silver bucket or wrapped up and laying on her back. She was basically happy as long as she was warm and could tuck her feet in, so she made for a perfect model.

In fact she was so sleepy that I was able to quickly switch out a few items to add in the heart bowl and other images of her holding a small pink teddy bear.

After various different poses on the beanbag, I had dad come in to help with the final chin in hands pose. We set up the tripod and I had dad click the camera while I safely supported Maren’s head and made sure she wasn’t ever compromising her neck or back. He did a great job and Maren was so relaxed we were even able to use my floppy flower hat, which is beyond precious on her tiny head.

A big congrats to this family on your sweet girl! Thanks for letting me be part of her special story.
