WEDDING DRESS FUN BUFFALO NEWBORN SESSION

Here is another image from baby Reagan's newborn session at Neal Urban Studio!

Reagan is here with her sister Jenna! Mom wanted to have her wedding dress included in some of the shoots. Why not have Jenna in the dress! It was so funny watching and trying to get Jenna to stand in mom's wedding dress. At first, she really didn't want to be in the "princess" dress. Then dad steps in and tries to get a foot in the dress to show her it's ok! After that, she was all smiles and posing.

Meanwhile, little Reagan was just sleeping away on top of the train of the dress! This was such a cute newborn session. I loved how we got to have both kids in some of the shots. I think this is my new favorite!

Vintage Buffalo Newborn Shoot

Well.. Isn't this just precious! Welcome baby Reagan! 

Reagan and the family visited Neal Urban Studio this week for newborn photos! I only just started to take a look at them, and we fell in love with this. We had to share right away! Look at that little tutu! She looks like a little puff ball! I love it!

After a few cries to start, Alyssa had Reagan super calm and fast asleep! We got to do a few different sets and series of images. It was great!

For this, the blue antique couch was calling out, "I need to be a part of this shoot." I knew when mom and I were in talks about ideas, this couch was going to be perfect for Reagan! We added in the chandelier and it brought such an elegant feel to the shot!

Reagan was definitely ready for her close up!

A "Winey" Newborn Session

Happy Friday all! Welcome to the world Henry Salvatore!

Look at this little guy! What a cutie! He came to visit Neal Urban Studio for his modeling debut last week! He was amazing and such a calm baby. He never made a peep.

You may be wondering, why wine boxes, bottles, and corks, for this newborn... Well, this little bundle of joy belongs to one of the "Salvatore's Italian Gardens" sons'! Unfortunately, we couldn't have him surrounded by amazing food, so wine was the next best choice! And it sure was awesome.

Mom and Dad brought in the wine boxes and tons of corks. Look closely. Do you see something different about the wine boxes? We incorporated Henry's name to one, and Salvatore to the other. Just a little hint of fun!

Amazing family! Amazing baby! Amazing shoot! Congratulations!

A huge thank you to Alyssa (you all know her by now) for assisting on this shoot. She definitely is our baby whisperer! Fantastic job as always!

BABY ARMIN

Meet baby Armin!

What a cutie! This poor little guy was not feeling too great and was a little fussy. The only way to calm him at first was for someone to hold him. We started with some family portraits to keep body contact with Armin. 

A little side note.. We went to the clients house for this shoot. We normally do these in studio, but since our studio is and was under Christmas Session construction we had to make a change. 

Little did we know, the clients house was under construction too. But it worked out for the better for this photo. A vacuum was running and seemed to put Armin to sleep. When they shut if off, he was up. So, we asked the construction man to keep it running. And we got this cute image of Armin. He looks so peaceful!

HELLO WORLD!

"HELLO WORLD" from baby Emily! Here is another favorite from our shoot with Emily at Neal Urban Studio. This was an outfit that Katie brought for the shoot! I loved it!

Emily did the best pose too! We wanted her to look like she was cheering! She did a giant stretch and ended just like this. Perfect! And look at that little smile!

So cute!

A LITTLE LADY AND HER HATS!

Look at this cutie! Meet baby Emily!

Emily and family came to visit us at Neal Urban Studio this past week. We photographed Mom and Dad's (Katie and Chad) engagement, wedding, their first baby (Matty), and now Emily. It was such a pleasure to capture this circle of life.

For Emily, we decided to have some fun with hats! You may wonder where this idea came from. After some Facebook stalking, a few years ago, Katie and Chad went to the Kentucky Derby. And if you know anything about the Derby, it is a time to shine with a new fun hat.

Well, I have never been, but I do love hats. I brought a bunch of mine and asked Katie if she could bring hers too. She told me that she had purchased one while they were at the Derby (bottom right). And a girl can never have too many accessories!

And here you go! Emily was such a great baby too. Thank you to our assistant Alyssa for helping out. She is just amazing with newborns!

HAT BOX FOR TWO!

I couldn't resist posting one more photo from our twin newborn session at Neal Urban Studio!

If Ruby and Maddy grow up to be anything like their mommy, they will have some expensive taste in fashion! We found this hat box at an antique store a long time ago. We have only ever used it as a prop in the back ground and it was normally out of focus. When we heard how tiny these ladies were, we wanted to test it out and see if they would both fit.

With the help of our assistant Alyssa, we got them in. It took a little time (not much) to get them placed exactly how Neal needed to take the shot. And the girls would not be complete without headbands and pink necklaces!

TWIN GIRLS NEWBORN SESSION #2

Here's part 2 from yesterday's post with Maddie & Ruby and with Part 2 we are posting 2 images!

We had to zoom out to get the whole chair in the shot. This chair was the same chair that we used in Christina's maternity session back in February. Christina, Josh, Luka and Caleb posed in and around the chair so it was only fitting to use the same chair for Maddie & Ruby! Love it when everything comes together!

TWIN GIRLS NEWBORN SESSION

It would only be natural to post an image from the twin girls newborn session we had today, since I built up a little excitement in yesterdays post.

So...Here you go! Meet Ruby and Maddie. Look at these little dollies! Aren't they the cutest? They were also so good. They both slept the entire time and had no accidents. I hope they were calm for mommy on the way home!

We had one of our newest assistants, Alyssa, help out today at Neal Urban Studio. She was amazing with these ladies. Ruby and Maddie loved her too! They both snuggled right up to her.

We used this chair in Christina and Josh's maternity session a month ago. We knew at that session, we wanted to use it somehow for the girlies. And I just love it. I think they did too. You can see it in Ruby's little smile! 

Congratulations Christina and Josh to these little bundles of joy!
