Henry's Handsome Newborn Session | Rustic, Clean and Natural Color Scheme

Houston Newborn Photographer | Sarah Borchgrevink

"A new baby is like the beginning of all things – wonder, hope, a dream of possibilities." -Eda J. Le Shan

As a Houston Newborn Portrait Photographer (and mama to three little girls!) nothing gives me more joy than spending time with your precious baby. I pride myself on providing stunning newborn images through the use of organic, hand picked textiles, a perfect environment for a new baby, and of course patience. Lots of patience! If you've ever been pregnant, you know that a baby cannot be rushed.

For my time with Henry, a handsome little lad, I designed a newborn session around the colors of his nursery, which are tan, brown, grey, green - hues of this nature. His sweet mama also pulled some personal items from the nursery such as a quilt that is a family heirloom. Pieces such as this add a special dynamic to your newborn gallery because they're unique, special, and just for you! 

Bonnets, wraps, and layers are a nice addition to styling the session because they grace baby and allow baby to shine by framing his face, or holding his legs in place so he looks extra curly - just like when he's in the womb growing.

Of course, if there are any special items such as college or sports teams, have no fear. If you lay them out for me, upon arrival I'll incorporate them into your session. I like to ensure you're happy with your newborn gallery and I am always excited to utilize your items to add just the special touch to your images.

All of my in home newborn sessions come with two floor props. This is one of my favorite wooden crates! It's perfect because baby can be tucked into bed with a special quilt or layered piece, and we can also add items from the nursery here such as the moose, hand-made quilt, and of course a bonnet or hat if needed. This prop is also lovely because if baby prefers being on his back he can be tucked in and if baby prefer's being on his tummy this can be done, too. The goal is for the session to be versatile and to show off baby from all angles.

Finally, here are a few of my favorite black and white conversions from Henry's session! He is so perfect, so sweet - so curly! Everything! I hope to see him again and thanks for stopping by my blog to see his images. If you scroll downward there are some helpful details if you are curious about any of my sessions. xoxox! - Sarah

“I realized when you look at your mother, you are looking at the purest love you will ever know.” -Mitch Albom

There is something incredibly special about photographing an expecting mother. It's almost as if you feel like you're part of something big. And in a way I am. I tell your story through beautiful natural light, connection based posing, and utilizing stunning locations that do celebrate your baby bump. However, in addition to documenting your pregnancy, I also offer newborn sessions, sitter 6 month milestone sessions and a 12 month session cake smash for the first year of baby's life. Many couples, including today's blog post, select this package. I'm honored to work with you and I truly enjoy getting to know you throughout our maternity, newborn, sitter and first birthday photos. 

Mom is absolutely beaming! The entire session she radiated joy and peace. Her baby is due in October and I'm already looking forward to meeting the precious earth angel! The entire session I had a smile on my face; everyone simply had a wonderful time. The sessions are laid back and very easy going. There's no pressure to perform. There's no awkwardness. Instead, it's just my camera and us. I guide and expertly direct you while also ensuring you feel comfortable, at ease and enjoy the experience. While it's quite warm during this time of the year, I do offer shaded locations that take place around sunrise or sunset. 

Stay tuned for more beautiful photos from these two! Soon they'll be a family of three. There's nothing like welcoming you new baby into the world. And until then, enjoy your pregnancy - feel their kicks, savor the time that you carry them.

"Families are the compass that guides us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights, and our comfort when we occasionally falter." -Brad Henry

As a Houston mama and photographer, I adore working with both families and children. It's always such a fun experience because I pride myself on ensuring your time with me is laid back, fun, positive, and of course results in beautiful portraits of your little ones and family! Typical sessions take place around sunrise or sunset during the golden hour; through the use of warm, connected posing and a vast array of prime lenses I preserve all that is beautiful in your family. I encourage little ones to run and play, and for you and your spouse to interact casually with the kiddos and one another.

Of course, your family session at Sarah Borchgrevink Photography includes a variety of set ups from the entire family, dad with the kiddos, mom with the kiddos, the little ones together and individual portraits of the kiddos.

As you can see, we had a great time! I hope you enjoyed viewing these images and stop by again soon to see more of my latest work. Fall sessions are filling up quickly and I look forward to another wonderful season! Warmest regards, Sarah
