Parent and family posing is an important part of your session because this time in your life is extremely special and deserves to be documented! You've just welcomed a brand new baby and they represent your hopes and dreams; you spent 9 months eagerly awaiting their arrival.

A few things that are paramount to your parent posing:

Muted Mauve For a Perfectly Petite Princess | Meet Rory

Sarah Borchgrevink Photography is a Houston Newborn Photographer specializing in custom posed studio sessions for your precious cherub baby.

Welcome To The World Sweet Rory

Hi, there! Welcome to my blog! I'm so excited you've found your way here. Chances are you may be interested in seeing a super sweet baby girl session. You're in luck - I have all the newborn cuteness you need! 

Rory Grace and her family visited my Houston Newborn Portrait Studio when she was 9 days fresh and new. Posed newborn sessions do take place when baby is 14 days or newer; I do, however, make exceptions and will sometimes take them up to 18 days if needed. Rory weighed just over 6 pounds at birth. She has a head full of soft blond hair, a fair complexion, and full cherub lips. What a little beauty! She visited for a full newborn collection so this post will show the highlights from my time with her.

Her parents visited from lovely Spring, TX - just north of Houston. My studio is convienetly located so thanks to the 99 toll road, clients from The Woodlands, Spring, Magnolia, Conroe, Montgomery or any suburb in the Northern Houston areas are able to quickly travel to me, typically in about half an hour.

When booking a posed newborn session with Sarah Borchgrevink Photography, your sessions are custom designed. Often, parents are unsure what that means. It's simple,  promise! Everything is provided for your session. Each bow, tie back, fabric, wrap, head band, bonnet, hat, crate, bowl, box, etc - you have full access to all props. I style each and every session around a few colors you may like, but also pull inspiration from the colors that I most enjoy using. I am consistently adding new items to my prop stash and coming up with new combinations. That's where the custom aspect comes into play: new combinations, new set ups, and creative and unique wrapping allows me to showcase the beauty of your newborn baby.

Here's what Rory Grace's parents relayed about their experience at Sarah's studio:

We found Sarah by searching through Instagram. Immediately I feel in love & knew it would be an investment well spent. As soon as we showed up she made us feel at home & her set up was so personal & professional. She was so welcoming & got to know us which meant a lot. I have never seen anyone handle a baby like she did. We kept giggling b/c we were in awe over her & our baby! If only we could put Sarah in our pocket and carry her around with us at all times it would help the first time parents out quite a bit lol! Our prints turned out amazing, she got them to us sooner than expected & overall the experience was phenomenal. HIGHLY recommend.

This set up is especially sweet because it's a soft mint and safe green. This is one of my favorite colors for newborn girls - it's timeless, classic and also adds a pop of color to your walls. This wooden crate is one of my favorites, too, because it's rustic and adds character to your portraits. The vintage quilt is a great find I found at an antique store; it needed a bit of cleaning up, but afterwards it's been a beautiful addition to my studio. I also like using this quilt in my outdoor, natural light family sessions, so you may have seen this exact quilt on my blog before, ha!

After all three floor props, we move to bean bag posing. These poses are super sweet, curly, and show off the womb like nature of a new baby who is fresh and recently earth side. These types of poses are included in my petite and full newborn collections; the wrapped mini, however, is for parents seeking a smaller number of more modest images, so keep that in mind when booking. The full newborn collection comes with 5 poses, however. You may also be interested in reading more about my favorite posing and how I utilize newborn safety during our time together. 

For the naked posing, I used a muted mauve. Mom specifically requested pink; while pink is not always my favorite color since it's used by virtually everyone, it can be styled in more unique aspects such as the hue you use, the type of wrap you use to add a layering piece, the tie back or bonnet, and of course the texture of the drop. I like this drop, shown below, because it's not 100 percent smooth; there are little checkers which are so cute; they add the most adorable nurance to the photos!

This Week In Studio | Sweet Older Siblings & Baby Sister

Specializing in simple, classic and fresh Houston Newborn Photography, Sarah Borchgrevink offers fully inclusive portrait collections, such as sibling images during your session.

Newborn Girl Kelleigh & her sweet older siblings

Greetings! Howdy to you! I'm thrilled you're here on my blog and are interested in reading more information about newborn information at my studio. To begin: welcome! Today's blog post features a sweet cherub named Kelleigh. Mom originally contacted me in the second trimester and booked a petite posed newborn collection for her daughter. This collection does including sibling images as well as family portraits, too. In this particular case, Mom and Dad requested we focus on siblings only and replace parent posing with photos of their little ones. I am happy to be flexible, so for this session, siblings were the star during family.

When baby is born, this is when we chat about the colors you'd like to see in your session. Mom requested a set up to match pink, white, cream and gold since she had special outfits ordered for the sisters. So, for our sibling time together, I pulled a favorite cream flokati rug and used my rustic wood floors. My newborn studio is full of wonderful items you're sure to love! When booking a posed newborn collection, you have full access to my props. If you're interested in reading more about vintage inspired newborn design, feel free to do so. On a fun note, that post will show you more of Kelleigh's posed portion

Here's what Mom had to say about her portraiture experience with Sarah:

We chose Sarah to do the newborn and sibling photos when we added our 5th child. Our children photographed were 7, 4, 2, and newborn. Our 2 year old decided she would not be cooperative during the session, but Sarah was extremely patient while we tried to get our toddler to participate. She was flexible during the whole session and because of that we ended up with beautiful sibling photos.

The newborn session was great. You could tell that Sarah was very experienced with newborns. I LOVED the rich jewel tones colors that Sarah chose for the session. I'm ecstatic with the results and look forward to having these captured moments displayed in my home.

For the sibling portion, we focused on a group image, image of the girls, and then one image of each child with their little sister. I like the sessions to be simple, laid back, and pressure free for parents. Your sibling photos take place at the beginning of your newborn session. You arrive, feed baby, I wrap her one of the many cozy styles I utilize, and then we begin working with the children. I have everything set up and designed in advance so things run smoothly. I completely understand it's a lot of work to get everyone ready for photos. I have three little girls myself (and am having a boy this December!) so it's important you not feel rushed or stressed out at my studio.
