Chic, Delicate, & Classic | Inspired by Four Elegant Color Ideas

4 Gorgeous Colors to Create Girly, Chic, and Dainty Newborn Photos | Inspired by a Love of Muted Tones

Newborn Styling 101: Be Timeless

When designing a custom newborn session, there are three aspects to my brand that are essential in creating some of the Best Houston Newborn Photography: Classic, Timeless, and Vintage-Inspired. My motto has always been, "Why be trendy, when you can be timeless?" This in mind, I offer a great styling questionnaire to all of my expecting parents. This is where we talk about your nursery colors, likes, dislikes, must have poses, and even things such as sentimental items from home so you may incorporate a personal item into your session if you wish.

This in mind, when Lily's mother, Talitha, shared her color preferences with me, she mentioned she loves nude colors. I found inspiration for their girly, chic, and feminine newborn session in the most interesting of ways: through an eyeshadow palette! I headed to my master bath and studied some of my favorite groupings.

Tan, Beige, Cream, and Mauve | Styling Houston Newborn Photos

These four colors, tan, beige, cream, and mauve, are absolutely breathtaking and stunning, making for an amazingly gorgeous newborn girl portrait session!

These four colors, listed above, make for an elegant color scheme for the most petite of clients: a precious newborn baby girl! When it comes to setting up for a session, everything is provided by me; all the dainty tiebacks, wraps, headbands, bowls, buckets, textiles, etc., it's all available in my client closet. The cream, for instance, looks spectacular against Lily's skin tone; her parents brought a pearl bracelet to add a sweet southern touch to the session, and I cannot stop swooning over her gallery! How lucky am I to photograph the most beautiful babies in all of Houston, Texas?

During my time with Lily, we focused on the blush pink and rosy tones, as well as mauve and even a vanilla cream! These colors are timeless, classic, and result in a fantastic gallery. During potato sack pose, for instance, I paired the fluffy cream flokati rug with an adorable rose headband to emphasize all things feminine and chic about a brand new little girl. From the moment of being earthside, Lily is super stylish!

In my Houston Baby Portrait Studio, you'll find (3) custom wood walls that make for stunning portraits! A dark wooden wall is a great option for my sessions because the texture is lovely with the vintage-inspired floor props I keep on hand. The cream, tan, and lace are all super girly while maintaining the vintage-inspired aspect of my newborn brand.

Finally, a cream distressed farmhouse bucket is a great way to encompass the nude color scheme for an elegant newborn girl photography session! This soft blush pink wrap is the perfect accent to little one's skintone; paired with a mauve pillow and rosy pink head piece accesorry, she is perfectly pink in all things nude!

Sloane’s Spring Inspired Sitter Session | Houston Baby Portraits

Sneak preview of Sloane's Spring Inspired Sitter Milestone Session by Sarah Borchgrevink Photography.

Howdy, friends! Welcome to my blog! As I write this post, I cannot help but be super excited to showcase a sweet baby girl named Sloane! I first met her at her posed newborn session in August. It's been about 6 months and now she's a precious infant who is sitting up, clapping her hands, rolling over, and hitting all of those adorable baby milestones parents love to see! 

Fun fact: Sloane's mama told me that her name means "female Irish warrior" which I truly believe is fitting for a modern gal! I really love when parents share details about the names of little ones and why they chose the name. 

Another fun part of Sloane's newborn session was the color scheme; we used many hues from rust, green, purple, and many antique, vintage buckets such as an aged metal pail you'll find in my studio. Color can make a session truly unique and special; while neutrals are the current trend, the color is what makes babies have that creamy, gorgeous skin in the images. 

Before we get started, here are a few images to swoon over that took place during the newborn portion of my time with baby girl.

Preview of Newborn Milestone for Baby Girl Sloane

So much sweet bean bag posing here! As a professional photographer, I do specialize in posed newborn photography and enjoy working with the smallest of clients. This rust-red color is absolutely amazing against her skin and really makes the gallery special.

As a newborn, she was a complete squish with gorgeous features and a precious head full of golden locks. Her parents were a dream to have in studio + big brother was the best!

Inspiration for Sloane's Sitter Session: Spring and Green

When newborn returns for their sitter session (and eventually their 12-month session!) each session is designed with the newborn photos in mind. For example, I use the floor props from their newborn session to show how much baby has grown. In this case, the rustic and antique bucket is the perfect vehicle to showcase little Sloane and all her cuteness.

The night before Sloane was scheduled to come in, I created a set up for her based on beautiful Spring green and hues; I also ordered a new succulent headband for her to match the floral tone. This is the same bucket from her newborn session and I'll definitely use it again for the 12-month cake smash!

Booking a session at Sarah Borchgrevink Photography means you'll have full access to a large array of amazing props, all of which are classic, vintage, and result in timeless baby photography.
