Kernersville Newborn Photography – Jenifer Howard Studios. The first message I received from Naomi’s mom was while she was on the way to the hospital to deliver her! I would have to say that was a first for me! I often receive messages within a few hours of delivery, but never while they are on their way! I checked in on her and just a few short hours later, Naomi was born!  She needed a little extra care, so our original date was postponed, and due to her high risk of catching illness, we opted to have her session at her home.

This was the first session I had done out of my studio in quite some time, and I forgot how much stuff a newborn session requires! Props, blankets, tiebacks, pillows, beanbags for support, lighting equipment, etc.. After about 5 trips back and forth hauling everything in, I quickly set up and got started. Naomi was absolutely gorgeous! I couldn’t get enough of her beautiful long lashes and head full of hair! I always go into newborn sessions expecting to be working with bald headed babies, so when I get babies with lots of hair, its such a sweet surprise!

Her older brother and sister was so much fun, and even though it took a little extra coaxing to get big sister interested in photos, I was able to get a couple completely adorable photos of the three of them together! Im always extra motivated by oreo ice cream shakes too! 😉

Mom and Dad told me that they had quite literally JUST moved in from California a few weeks before Naomi’s arrival. I couldnt believe it because there were no unpacked boxes in site… While I had been moved in 9 months and had pushed a couple boxes into our pantry into the unpack later pile!

Naomi’s mom has been so sweet to send me some updated snapshots of her, and I cannot believe how big she is getting! They grow way too fast!

Before I relocated to Greensboro, I teamed up with Lizzy from Momento Studios of Mesa, AZ at the end of January to play with some new lighting techniques and this gorgeous fellow photographer and maternity model, Laci! I love collaborating with fellow photographers in the community! I think sometimes we get so busy with the hustle and bustle of running a business, that we forget to just have fun! She absolutely rocked her 34 week pregnant belly! I think the sweetest moment happened when we got her little girl all dressed up and had her jump in for a few of the photos.  She gave us and her mama some of the sweetest smiles! I know that one of the biggest worries I had from going from one child to two, was that my oldest would feel left out. I love that we were able to capture some of the connections between mother and daughter here, and I hope that Laci and her sweet babies cherish them for years to come!

Ive been there before and I know that by the third trimester, the last thing you are interested in is getting photographed. You feel like exhausted and huge and the only thing you want is for your 40 weeks to be up so you can be holding your sweet baby in your arms and you can finally sleep on your back again. You are beautiful! Although though your ankles may be a tad swollen, The moments are fleeting. Before you know it you will have a sweet little baby in your arms, and you will miss feeling those adorable little feet kicking you in your ribs while you are trying to fall asleep. Let Jenifer Howard Studios – Greensboro Maternity Photographer, help you capture that pregnancy glow!

Greensboro Newborn Photography – Baby Grace. This beautiful little girl was quite the surprise for her mom and dad! They had been in the adoption process for a while and after a failed adoption over the summer, they had decided to wait a little longer before they went through the process again.Then, the phone rang. A beautiful baby girl had just arrived and was waiting for them! They jumped on a plane from their home in Kentucky to come to Phoenix to pick up their brand new baby girl! I was so excited to receive their phone call! Baby Grace was 10 days new and since they were trying to get everything finalized and were unsure when they would be able to take her back to Kentucky, they wanted to make sure that they captured how tiny and perfect she was now. I had an opening the very next morning, so I put together a few sweet and simple sets for them, which included lots of pink per request!
She was absolutely perfect! She gave me some adorable expressions, as you can see below! I loved her perfect smile and when she stuck her tongue out during her daddy and me photos, we all had a good laugh!
Its not very often that you get such a special client! I am so glad that I was able to photograph this new family of 3! Grace is the perfect fit for their family and It was so amazing to see the love they instantly had for their baby girl! I wish them the best as they head back to Kentucky and settle into their brand new life with their gorgeous baby girl!

Greensboro Newborn Portraits – Jenifer Howard Studios. This sweet and handsome baby boy came to visit my studio on New Years Eve and was my last newborn of 2015! I got a call from his sweet mama the day before and she explained to me that they had just found out that her husbands work had a program where they paid for newborn photos, but it wasn’t going to be available in 2016, so we had one day to do the session! I quickly sent over all the booking info and they came over to the studio the next morning.
I could not even stand how adorable Harrison’s big brothers were! They were all pros for their brothers portrait, even his brother that was only 18 months old! It is so special to capture that special bond between siblings in those early days, even if they aren’t too sure about baby yet!
Harrison was absolutely perfect! Sure, he may have peed and pooped on me a couple times, and all the props he was on, but that handsome face made up for it all! He was not a big fan of two things, 1. Being naked (even though it was a toasty 82 degrees) and 2. Being on his belly. So I adjusted the session accordingly so that he would stay happy. Being flexible is very important in newborn photography. Each baby is unique and has a personality all of their own. I want to keep them as comfortable and happy as possible during their newborn session, and if that means doing more baby-led posing, or more wrapped photos, then that is OK.  Your baby’s comfort and happiness is my number one priority and a key ingredient to a successful newborn session!

Its always so much fun to work with two year olds. Sure, they call it the terrible twos, but what they really mean by that is that two year olds are so stinkin’ adorable that you just want to freeze time! They come up with funny phrases, they are really exploring their personality, and they will give you some amazing captures!
This sweet girl was no exception! First she was a little shy, but eventually gave me the biggest smiles and sweetest looks! She brought along her bunny for her session so that she (bunny) could get her photo too!
This family told me that this was their first professional photo session, ever! I never would have guessed that, because they rocked it!!
