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.

Adorable Baby Boy Newborn Session | Houston TX Newborn Photography by Sarah Borchgrevink

Wrapped Newborn Mini Session | Houston TX Newborn Baby Photography

Here's what this sweet mama had to say about her portraiture experience at Sarah Borchgrevink Photography:

"I couldn't be happier with the way our newborn session turned out. The experience in the studio was wonderful. Sarah is super sweet and is a true professional when handling newborns. The final results were amazing, I wanted every picture! I highly recommend Sarah!"

Good morning to you! I hope you're having a fantastic day and gearing up for a fun weekend. Today is a busy day at my studio; precious newborns are coming in and I look forward to meeting them and interacting with their awesome families. There's nothing like holding a newborn baby; the smell, how curly they are, their sweet nature and how precious, and sacred their tender lives are. This is the heart of why I photograph babies: nothing makes me more happy and this is why I specialize in them. 

Today's newborn session, however, I am previewing is the wrapped mini newborn collection. These are for parents seeking a timeless, simple and more modest approach to newborn portraits. The collection includes an hour of my time and talent, custom design featuring unique and soulful color combinations, as well as two floor props, flokati rug, parent, family and sibling images, and macro images, which are the ever so beautiful details of your baby's features, such as their lips, eyelashes and tiny toes. Your session also includes gorgeous retouched high resolution digital files + prints and products to enjoy. :-) 

Here are my favorite images from my time with baby boy Landon. Hope you enjoy! Wishing you all my happiness and warmth!
