Houston Infant Photography | Colorful Newborn Session at 7 Days

Colorful & Vibrant Tones during a 7 Day Old Newborn Baby Boy Portraiture Session in Houston Texas

Welcome Handsome Little One | Laksh at 7 Days Old

Greetings to you! Welcome to my blog! My name is Sarah and I'd love to welcome you. First and foremost: thank you for stopping by! I am a Houston Newborn Photographer specializing in all things squishy baby portraits. I delight in designing vibrant, soulful an vintage inspired sessions to preserve this incredibly special time in your life. Through the use of dynamic lighting and impeccable retouching, I present you with the most lovely gallery of images. You're sure to treasure these for a lifetime! 

To begin, today's blog post focuses on a little boy who visited my studio at just 6 days new! He weighed just under 7 pounds and had a stunning head full of hair. He slept wonderfully for our time together and we had a great time. His parents chose the petite newborn collection, which is my middle collection; it has a little bit of everything from sweet parent posing, antique floor props, and even some curly, oh so darling posing.

I pride myself on offering a great experience, too! My newborn studio is conveniently located in Northwest Houston with easy access to all major freeways and toll roads. I am about 20 minutes outside the 610 loop, half an hour from The Woodlands and North Houston, or half an hour from areas like Bellaire, too. 

Here are some of my favorite images from my time with this handsome little one. Keep reading for more details, images, or if you're curious about booking your own newborn session, I am happy to assist you.

The "froggy pose" for bean bag

The froggy pose for bean bag is a favorite among parents. It is, however, done as a composite to ensure newborn safety. I have taken several workshops on how to carefully pose brand new babies. I also like to do two different angles if possible. This adorable, custom bonnet is from one of my favorite European vendors and then the super soft, darling sage wrap is from a great gal here in the states.

Let’s Go to the County Fair | Houston Cake Smash & Family Session

Located in Northwest Houston, Sarah Borchgrevink Photography offers natural light, on location family sessions. In addition to gorgeous outdoor portraits, Sarah also offers child milestone sessions such as cake smash photography. Check out this darling county fair themed cake smash!

Outdoor & Natural Light Cake Smash | County Fair Theme

Howdy, friends! Welcome to my blog! Today's post focuses on adorable children's cake smash session as well as the family portion of his one year photography session. As a photographer, I do specialize in newborn portraits, however, I offer a limited number of outdoor, natural light family photography appointments as well as darling children's portraits for your little ones, too. :-) Today's post is all about a super sweet family! We used one of my favorite locations in Cypress, but the parents were total rock stars and came from Pearland. The good thing about Houston is that we have many major highways so traveling is generally pretty easy. 

For this cake smash + family session combination, Mom told me baby's birthday party theme is a county fair so she wanted to incorporate that into his cake smash. I am a prop minimalist so that baby may be the focus; we used a vintage high chair, a cute set of balloons and then a sign Mom brought. The star of the smash is Baby but a cute cherry pie is what we used to smash. So cute! Simple, easy details. Moms: don't make things harder than they need to be. This is something I cannot stress enough.

Here are my favorite images of our time together!

Outdoor Family Photography | Sweet Baby Boy & His Doting Parents

This portion of the session was a lot of fun for me to document because family connections are everything. As a mama, I can tell you how special it is to have images of your entire family interacting. I like my family portrait sessions to be lifestyle in nature meaning you cuddle, kiss, toss baby into the air. Everything should feel warm and natural. Be who you are. Enjoy being with your spouse and children. This time is sacred and these sweet memories will be truly wonderful to look back on and admire! My sessions take place specifically at sunrise or sunset; in this case, we shot at sunset since the location faces east. The stunning, golden light adds much warmth to the images and emphasises love. Truly my favorite time of the day!

Pregnancy Announcement & Gender Reveal | Sharing Joy With You

The Borchgrevink Family is having another baby this December! Bring on all things boy!

Good morning, friends, and happy Monday! Today on the blog things are going to get a little personal. You see, the hubby and I decided we'd like to try for *one* more baby, as we already have three sassy little girls we like to call the Tiny Tribe of Wild Women. As parents, we cannot express our joy in raising our little clan of red headed gals, and felt like if we were going to have a fourth baby, now is the time. We would like the little ones to be close in age and grow up together, as friends. 

As some of you know, Kevin, my spouse, is a stay at home Dad to our kiddos and helps me with the business side of my photography. I shoot full time, for a living, and this blog post will cover some details about sessions for the rest of the year, maternity leave, and what type of work I'll be taking on. Because I photograph family/newborns for a living, I am sharing details with you.

The Calendar for 2017

With my last three pregnancies, I photographed clients until I was 42 weeks pregnant, had a baby, and then immediately went back to work a few days after coming home from the hospital. While I do bounce back super quickly and am extremely blessed to have easy pregnancies, I have decided to close my family calendar for the rest of the year. If you're already on the calendar for any family/maternity/child session between August and November, please know your session is still good to go. I will, however, not be taking fall/winter family sessions this year so I may enjoy my last pregnancy and not have 60 clients per month. It's really hard to balance working life, family life, social obligations and be present as a wife and mother when you're shooting 2-3 sessions/day for several months straight. 

I'll continue taking newborns, however, since they're in studio and what I currently specialize in. I'll be taking newborns until the last week of November. This means, I will not be taking December due dates, but will be taking January due dates. After this, I'll be on maternity leave for December and part of January. 

BABY PLAN MEMBERSHIPS

If you're currently a baby plan client, have no fear. I will be finishing out your plans and if your baby plan milestone session (such as 6 or 12 months) takes place in December, when I happen to be on maternity leave, you can either do your session in November or later in January. My e-mail is always open with any concerns or questions you may have.  I absolutely never want you to feel like your session is not important to me. Milestone sessions are flexible since it's more of a "sitter" session meaning your session takes place when baby is sitting up, but not yet walking. This can be anytime from 6-8 months, as most babies don't walk until closer to 10-12 months. 

Gender Reveal & Pregnancy Announcement

Kevin and I are definitely on the more "laid back" side of things. We have three young children and our lives are controlled chaos at best; we've learned things will never be picture perfect or inspired by Pintrest because that's not who we are. This in mind, we decided to do an easy announcement in which we allowed our kiddos to have fun and play in my studio. We turned on their favorite Taylor Swift music, blew up some balloons and also dressed them in blue shirts, since blue is typically associated with all things boy. My mother in law was super kind to help me put everything together since it was a heavy work week for me.

Here are some of my favorite shots of the kiddos! 

Thanks for stopping by the 'ol blog and taking time to read about the latest adventure! I look forward to sharing images of the little boy we're having in December!
