Newborn Photographer Arizona | Harris

one thing I’m a complete sucker for, fresh 48 sessions. I can’t say they’re my absolute favorite – because ya know, birth and newborns too. BUT, I do love, love, love these!

I love the lifestyle-ness to them, just documenting those first few hours after meeting your newest baby – not strictly posing, just shooting as life happens. gah, I really love it.

and this little man did not disappoint, how. cute. is. he.
those tiny toes, fingers, and even a teeny little ear in there – all of this you’re going to miss like crazy.

I mean, after how much he loved me at his fresh 48 I should have had a pretty good idea how he would feel about me at his newborn session – he definitely didn’t love me, haha. but that’s okay!

no matter how much they try to fight it, they all give in eventually. let me tell you, when they actually give in – I work like crazy to get as many shots and setups as possible before they wake up again.

if you’re ready to set up your newborn session with us – feel free to take a look at our package list and contact us!

this birth story is one for the books; "My due da this birth story is one for the books;

"My due date was January 16, and while I knew it was unlikely baby would show up on this arbitrary “due date”, I still felt discouraged to wake up still pregnant. We went through our day visiting Holly’s growing farm, and I felt off and strange all day. I took a small nap at her house, and when driving home, kept complaining that I felt uncomfortable and was having lower back pain. I took a nap when we got home for about 4 hours to try and find some relief.
I woke up around 9 pm and decided to try a shorter version of the Miles Circuit to try and engage baby. Nick and I enjoyed some time together and by around 11:45, I started questioning some of the feelings in my lower abdomen. The sensations were developing a pattern at about 7-15 minutes apart, but were very mild and felt no different than a typical period cramp. I let Nick know around midnight that I was possibly feeling contractions and advised him to get off the Xbox and head to bed soon (which he, of course, didn’t do.) I texted my midwife to give her a heads up and even though I was filled with anticipation on whether this was the start of my birth, she advised me to get some rest. Just before 4 am, I could no longer sleep through the waves. They were about 4 minutes apart and were still manageable, but within the next hour and a half, had grown to about 2 minutes apart and were lasting about 45-60 seconds. Around 5:30, I called my mom to ask if she could come over and lay down with Harper because I was feeling like I needed Nick’s support soon. At around 6, my mom showed up, and I soon woke up Nick to say that I thought today was the day. I felt like I wanted some fresh air, so I put on a jacket and asked him to go for a walk with me. He was a little panicked at my request and was insisting that we call the midwife and blow up the birth tub, but I was still convinced that this was early labor. When he decided to time the contractions, he told me that they were much closer together than the last time I contacted my midwife, so he called her to give her the update. Our midwife, Brea, agreed that it sounded like a significant change and started to.. (go to comments)

something you'll barely ever see on my feed is lif something you'll barely ever see on my feed is lifestyle stuff; I never ever shoot it, just because it's not my style. but this momma was a birth client of mine a couple years ago, and I was supposed to be there for this sweet girls birth too. but ya know, covid. so we did a lifestyle fresh 48 when they got home from the hospital, and they're just the cutest little family. I'm so happy I could document those first few moments as a family of five <3
