Adorable Deliah's Jewel Tone Newborn Session in Houston TX

Located in Houston, Sarah Borchgrevink joyfully serves the entire area including, but not limited to, Meyerland, Bellaire, West University and Braeswood Place.

In Studio Photography for fresh, brand new babies & their parents.

Here's what Delilah's parents had to relay about their newborn experience at Sarah's studio:

“We were referred to Sarah by another photographer who was fully booked around our due date - and I’m so grateful! Sarah provided an amazing newborn photo experience from the start! She was quick to reply via email to all my questions, and had great advice on how to make sure our little one snoozed the whole time. She was so gentle and sweet handling our daughter, and she was so fun to talk with while we watched her work! I highly recommend you allow her to pick the color schemes for your baby. We let her pick all the colors and our favorite pictures ended up being with colors I would have never thought to pick! We are definitely hoping to come back for family pictures each year!”

Howdy, friends! I'm excited you're here! As always, it's wonderful you stopped by. If you're here, you're probably looking forward to reading more details about this sweet baby girl. She visited at around 9 days new and is absolutely a true gem! Her parents booked the popular petite newborn collection, which is a really lovely option for parents who are looking for a little bit of everything. This includes family photos, images of Mom with Baby, Dad with Baby, several custom set ups featuring baby, and more! Custom set ups, if you're wondering, are designed with unique aspects in mind. For instance, I ask myself, "How will this color photograph? Have I used this before? What headbands looks nice with this bucket? How can I ensure the session is unique?" You see - I specialize in newborns, which means 99.99 percent of the sessions I take are new babies. I do take a handful of baby plans/maternity sessions, but I have a succinct focus on tiny, fresh new babies who are 2 weeks or less when they visit.

Here are some of my favorite images from Delilah's gorgeous session! :-) 

Again, I'd like to thank you for visiting my blog. It means so much to me you took time out of your day to visit! If you perhaps are expecting or know a couple who is, it would be an absolute honor if you'd consider (or even refer) me for your portraiture needs. I'd be delighted to schedule a complimentary consult just for you. Wishing you a great day! Hope you're up to many exciting things! I'm off to tackle the dishes but I look forward to showcasing more adorable cherubs this week.

All my warmth to you. Joyfully yours!

Fresh, Gorgeous Neutral Baby Boy Session | Meet Jakob

Baby Photographer, Sarah Borchgrevink, serves the Greater Houston Area including The Woodlands, Spring, Conroe and Magnolia Texas. Welcome Baby Boy Jakob - 7 days fresh and new.

Greetings, friends! Happy Tuesday to you! I hope you're having an awesome day and up to something fun with your family. Today I am at my desk working on business tasks, but I am also excited because a sweet baby girl is coming to my studio in a few hours. For now, however, I'm going to show off this absolutely precious little boy who visited recently. His name is Jakob. At 7 days old, he visited my all white, organic Houston Newborn Photography studio and slept wonderfully for me. He weighed around 7 pounds and loved the cozy wrapping. Here are some of my favorite images of his session.

Jakob's parents were sweet as can be. They chose to not do family images and focus on baby. They selected me petite collection, which offers a wonderful array of images from super cute wrapped portraits, floor props, naked bean bag posing and of course the fantastic macro images that truly capture the unique aspects of your new baby.

Mom relayed she really is a fan of neutrals, however, is not opposed to perhaps a bit of color such as navy blue. They came from The Woodlands, which is just north of Houston, and I made sure their entire session was set up so we could begin on time. 

During their baby session, the little ones love to be wrapped! Parents always marvel at how easily they fall asleep. Moreover, this keeps baby sleep so we can utilize many props and set ups. For example, this enables me to use two floors props. Examples of floor prop choices are buckets, bowls, baskets, crates, boxes, all of which are antique and vintage inspired to reflect my personal tastes. I must note: always research your newborn photographer's portfolio to ensure you're a good fit. :-) I do a lot of color but am not opposed to a neutral session here and there, such as this one. 

Baby Boy has gorgeous skin! He is simply glowing and is the picture of health. His full head of hair, cup lips, button nose, chubby cheeks and sweet smile simply made my heart soar. He also was very curly and fun to pose; I truly like for baby to look as timeless and simple as possible. While newborn photography truly is a custom art, it should look effortless in the final images, despite it being anything but easy. I am formally trained and have taken many workshops on safety, lighting, posing, flow, wrapping and post processing of your images. This is why I take your investment very seriously.

Ahhhh! That sweet, sleepy yawn! These are always favorites of mine since images such as this truly show off the baby and their personality. 

The rest of this handsome fellow's petite posed newborn collection featured naked posing. Here are my favorite images. :-) I hope you enjoy!

Pregnancy Announcement & Gender Reveal | Sharing Joy With You

The Borchgrevink Family is having another baby this December! Bring on all things boy!

Good morning, friends, and happy Monday! Today on the blog things are going to get a little personal. You see, the hubby and I decided we'd like to try for *one* more baby, as we already have three sassy little girls we like to call the Tiny Tribe of Wild Women. As parents, we cannot express our joy in raising our little clan of red headed gals, and felt like if we were going to have a fourth baby, now is the time. We would like the little ones to be close in age and grow up together, as friends. 

As some of you know, Kevin, my spouse, is a stay at home Dad to our kiddos and helps me with the business side of my photography. I shoot full time, for a living, and this blog post will cover some details about sessions for the rest of the year, maternity leave, and what type of work I'll be taking on. Because I photograph family/newborns for a living, I am sharing details with you.

The Calendar for 2017

With my last three pregnancies, I photographed clients until I was 42 weeks pregnant, had a baby, and then immediately went back to work a few days after coming home from the hospital. While I do bounce back super quickly and am extremely blessed to have easy pregnancies, I have decided to close my family calendar for the rest of the year. If you're already on the calendar for any family/maternity/child session between August and November, please know your session is still good to go. I will, however, not be taking fall/winter family sessions this year so I may enjoy my last pregnancy and not have 60 clients per month. It's really hard to balance working life, family life, social obligations and be present as a wife and mother when you're shooting 2-3 sessions/day for several months straight. 

I'll continue taking newborns, however, since they're in studio and what I currently specialize in. I'll be taking newborns until the last week of November. This means, I will not be taking December due dates, but will be taking January due dates. After this, I'll be on maternity leave for December and part of January. 

BABY PLAN MEMBERSHIPS

If you're currently a baby plan client, have no fear. I will be finishing out your plans and if your baby plan milestone session (such as 6 or 12 months) takes place in December, when I happen to be on maternity leave, you can either do your session in November or later in January. My e-mail is always open with any concerns or questions you may have.  I absolutely never want you to feel like your session is not important to me. Milestone sessions are flexible since it's more of a "sitter" session meaning your session takes place when baby is sitting up, but not yet walking. This can be anytime from 6-8 months, as most babies don't walk until closer to 10-12 months. 

Gender Reveal & Pregnancy Announcement

Kevin and I are definitely on the more "laid back" side of things. We have three young children and our lives are controlled chaos at best; we've learned things will never be picture perfect or inspired by Pintrest because that's not who we are. This in mind, we decided to do an easy announcement in which we allowed our kiddos to have fun and play in my studio. We turned on their favorite Taylor Swift music, blew up some balloons and also dressed them in blue shirts, since blue is typically associated with all things boy. My mother in law was super kind to help me put everything together since it was a heavy work week for me.

Here are some of my favorite shots of the kiddos! 

Thanks for stopping by the 'ol blog and taking time to read about the latest adventure! I look forward to sharing images of the little boy we're having in December!
