Moving Home to Iceland

This family came in to get some portraits from their temporary home in Rochester before moving back to their home in Iceland!

Their little lad was fairly exhausted! But honestly, it made him even cuter. If that is possible.

He laughed only when tickled. And he would shake his head no if he didn't like something we were showing him to make him laugh. Ha! I loved it.

Gavin Newborn | Rochester, NY Newborn Photographer

Yessssss!!! They had more babies. (I think all their friends and family agree!). They make beautiful ones and I love getting to hang out with them. 

Gavin Newborn | NorthGlow Photography

I went to their home. And I love that. We walk around and find cute spots. We use your things. The kids hang out and relax. It really is a beautiful way to capture this. (Unless you love props, if you love props and lots of choices, you will prefer the studio). 

Gavin Newborn | NorthGlow Photography

This little brother is very loved. And I think he is fitting right in!

Yes, you are seeing double. I find the universe hands me things in groups! It is twin week over here!

Double Trouble | NorthGlow Photography

It was such a beautiful day. We loved getting to be outside. I decided I might start offering you the service of having balloons for you here waiting? Do you like that idea? Ask if you want them! I can do it for you. It was fun. 

Double Trouble | NorthGlow Photography

This little family is a favorite. (I know. I think I have a lot of favorites I say that a lot. BUT I do). Can you believe I took big brother's newborn photos? I can't. Why in the world do these babies grow so quickly!

Sana 6 Months

This is Mama's little girl. I loved spending the first year with her! I got to photograph her 2nd child a couple years ago. This is their 3rd child. The only girl. Mama knows how to do it right with all the girly frills. 

Sana 6 Months | NorthGlow Photography

I was just having a conversation the other day with a photographer friend. About wardrobe. Lots of times I see people pinning photo ideas on Pinterest. I wonder what it is about those photos they like? I wonder if they know what it is about those photos THEY like. 

Sana 6 Months | NorthGlow Photography

Many times it is wardrobe. This little pink dress is like spectacular. I mean this baby girl is spectacular. Her eyes?!?!? Her Smile?!?! BUT people the wardrobe matters. Go the extra mile. Reap the rewards.

You will never regret having spent the money on the whole first year. 

Blake's Year One | NorthGlow Photography

Put it on a credit card! (I wish I would have done that with my wedding photography…I'm not one to encourage debt, but it is something I would have spread out payment on in a heart beat for better photos!!! aaaahhh).

Her daddy bought a gift certificate for his pregnant wife for newborn photos. I have a feeling he is on her good side.

We like to be sure if there is an older sibling, that they feel special too!
