Sweet Sylvie was in the studio last week for her big newborn debut, and she was already full of personality at just over 5 pounds. We did a lovely lavender, spring photo session for her and I loved getting to capture this special time for her family while she was still curly and small.

Sylvie was a great little model during her studio session, but we had off and on moments of her being truly relaxed. The life of a newborn sure is hard when you have to work so hard to eat, sleep, and do the basics! But she was a champ for all her props and photos and we were able to do a complete session for her with a feeding in the middle to keep her comfortable.

We did lavender colors with flowers and other shades of purple for her theming, and I had fun creating her sets around the spring color palette. Sylvie rocked the two hardest props, the twig bed and the hot air balloon, so after that it was a a breeze of keeping her warm, snuggled, and happy.

She took a quick feeding break before her parent photos, then loved being swaddled for a few special pictures with a namesake blanket and other images on her back. She was off and on with relaxing her hands and feet, so I decided to make it easier for the both of us by keeping one colored fabric on the beanbag. But she did great and all her tummy pictures, loved laying on her side, and let me snag a few quick pics on her back before she politely asked to be done (and eat again!)

Sylvie truly was a joy to work with for the morning and I so enjoyed getting to visit with her parents. Enjoy this sneak peek of this tiny but mighty little girl!
