We decided to splurge on some newborn photos, and are so happy we did! These beautiful shots were taken by Andrea Ryerson.

She has her own studio and a million props (headbands, wraps, bonnets, cradles, baskets, backdrops, etc.). She is extremely patient and knows just how to setup the shot to be stunning. We highly recommend her!

Since these turned out so well, I attempted to do my own at-home DIY photoshoot using some of the techniques Andrea used. I obviously need some practice but I don’t think it turned out half bad! I took around 200 photos and these were the ones that I thought were decent.
