Full Portrait Experience – Dallas Maternity and Newborn Photographer
Full Portrait Experience – Dallas Maternity and Newborn Photographer
The full portrait experience with CLJ Photography consists of three individual shoots – the Maternity session, the Hospital “Fresh 48” session and the Newborn session. What I love most about capturing each of these three is watching the transformation into a Mother. It is a these special moments you want to remember, beautifully, forever. This moment only happens once.
I love watching who these people change into. Seeing the love they have for their child. This woman sacrifices her body, her sleep and diet all for this little person who she only feels kick. It is the most incredible love. It begins with the anticipation – the Maternity session.
The I get a text that her sweet little girl has arrived. I make time for a visit to the hospital. Both parents are usually sleep deprived and anxious to leave the hospital. Labor and delivery stories are shared and it bonds us together in the same experience. I usually see parents who are nervous about how to hold their little child and Mothers learning how to nurse a baby.
It’s a lot of change and it hits them fast and yet, every time, all I see is overwhelming love.
The anticipation is over and the real life sets in. It is sweet and warm and exhausting – the Fresh 48 session. Within a week, we schedule the Newborn session. Before the infant changes too much, we want to capture those little squishy bellies, toes, fingers and nose!
Their lives within a week seem to find their own little place. They begin schedules and routines. We talk often about how much their baby has already changed. How big they’ve grown at their one week appointment. The life that once circled around their relationship and partnership has shifted entirely around this little, sleeping baby – the Newborn session.
