This sweet family has been coming to me to capture their growing family for a few years now and it’s always so much fun when families bring home a new baby. I have to say that the biggest adjustment isn’t usually from mom or dad, it’s from the older sibling who now has to share the spotlight! Some older siblings loooooove their new baby brother or sister and cuddle them to no end. Some siblings are totally indifferent and barely seem to know the baby is there. Some siblings throw major shade at their new sibling and do things like steal their pacifiers or only want to be held by the parent holding the baby. It’s so funny to watch the range of reactions in the short time I’m in my client’s home for their newborn photography session. It’s like a little window into the world of 2+ child families; since I just one and never knew what that transition was like. My observations so far are that my clients take it all in amazing stride.

Whatever the reaction of your first born, there’s nothing more special than growing your family and capturing that love and the first few days with your newest baby are so important to document. Whether you’re expecting your first, second, or seventh baby – contact me today to inquire about maternity, newborn, and grow with me packages so that you can look back on these days for decades to come.

For there is no friend like a sister in calm or stormy weather; To cheer one on the tedious way, to fetch one if one goes astray, to lift one if one totters down, to strengthen whilst one stands. Christina Rossetti
