Outdoor Family First Birthday Session Cake Smash in Houston

The M Family's Natural Light & Outdoor Family Cake Smash Combination in honor of Baby Boy Jeremy turning the big one.

Here's what Jeremy's parents had to say about their baby plan membership to Sarah Borchgrevink Photography:

Sarah is absolutely fantastic. Not only are her pictures superb, but her professionalism, personality, and all around demeanor are top notch. We are baby plan clients and at our of  sessions Sarah has been very easy to work with and has taken our specific likes and wants and incorporated them into our sessions. The best part by far is her turn around time. At our sessions we received our online gallery within a week of our session! I highly recommend Sarah for newborn and family photography!

Friends, good morning! I am excited to blog this incredibly adorable children's session in which we did a family + birthday photo shoot for one of my longtime clients. The M family first contacted me while Mom was pregnant; they booked a baby plan membership, which is a wonderful way to preserve the first year of life for your precious little one.

The Baby Plan Membership is any of the following combination:

• In studio posed newborn session (wrapped mini, petite or full collection) of your choice
• Any combination of 3, 6, 9 or 12 month milestone session

In this case, this sweet couple chose to do a full newborn collection as well as 6 and 12 month session. This is the most popular combination since many parents see the most difference in growth between newborn and 6 months; followed by 6 and 12 month differences. Here are some of my favorite images from our sunrise session.

Family Photos Take Place First 

Family sessions are lifestyle in nature, meaning I embrace the spirit of your family. I encourage you to play with your kiddo, interact with your spouse and feel at ease. Family photos take place at the beginning so that little one has time to warm up to me. Plus, baby will be smashing a cake after the family part so this makes sure baby is clean for your family images, ha!

Individual Photos of Baby Are after family

The milestone portion of your child's session follows the family set ups. Milestone portion is where we focus on developmental changes since our last session together. For 12 months, it's usually standing or walking, pulling up, clapping their hands, smiling, and really showcasing their personality.

Let Them Eat Cake

After baby's individual portion of milestone images, we then focus on the cake smash aspect of your session. I provide timeless and vintage inspired props for this session, but also ensure baby is the focus of our time together, too. I do not like distracting aspects in the images so props are kept to a minimum so baby will be the shining star. Examples of props I may bring as things like an antique high chair, quilt, crate, etc. Due to allergy purposes, I have parents bring the cake. You may go as festive or minimalist as you like. :-) Outdoor cake smash or first birthday sessions always take place right around sunrise or sunset, too, for optimal lighting. You're given a location list to pick from so have no worries: I have lots of good options for you!

It's all in the details

An important aspect to me is the details of your session. I love showing off their little toes, messy hands, sweet up close shots of their faces, etc. While we do include many images of baby playing, exploring and checking out the cake, I adore showing all those precious moments Mamas are sure to love. Their little fingers, for instance, reaching for the cake is absolutely precious as can be! They're only little for a short time. Let them be small. This cake smash encourages them to be who they are and their personalities to shine through.

Black & White Minimalist Inspired Newborn Session | Jax

Houston Newborn Photography Session by Sarah Borchgrevink Photography | White & Black Minimalist Theme 

Here's What Jax's Mama Had to say about her experience:

 I highly recommend Sarah for your newborn photo needs. Not only was she extremely professional but she is very kind and was so patient with my little one. As a first time mom, I was extremely nervous about taking my baby out anywhere but her kind manner and cozy studio put my nerves at ease. Over email, I was able to tell her my vision and she was able to execute it perfectly. The best part was the day I got to go view all of the photos she took and walk away with all the printed proofs in a cute little gift box. I will definitely be taking my son back to her for his 1 year old photos."

Good afternoon everyone and happy Monday! Today has been great! I've had a few precious newborn babies in my studio, ordered prints, packaged up products, and now I'm settling into my desk for some editing and of course an updated blog. You see, as a photographer, I specialize in the custom art of newborn baby photography. This means I take nearly exclusively newborn sessions so that each baby may have all the attention to detail he or she deserves. My sessions all custom in nature which means I strive to provide unique props, set ups, poses, and a gorgeous gallery of baby portraits you're sure to love. The investment is one you'll never regret making. 

Today's baby who's beautiful face graces my blog is a handsome little fellow named Jax. The session also includes high resolution digital files & some gorgeous heirloom products so you're sure to have stunning fine art prints plus some awesome images to share with loved ones, plus print yourself. 

When Baby Jax came to my studio, he was just under 3 weeks old and about 7 pounds. He slept wonderfully for me and I barely even saw his beautiful eyes! His lashes and sweet cheeks had me oooohing and gushing over him! I adore each and every baby who comes to my studio and I cannot wait to work with each family! I cannot express how much I love newborn photography. That's partly why I specialize in babies: families, especially new parents, deserve a newborn experience in which the photographer is in absolute love with the genre their documenting. For me, that great love is newborns.

Here are my favorite images from the session! I hope you love them just as much as his sweet mama! <3
