Sweet little Eliana joined me in the studio for her newborn mini session at just 7 days new, and she was an absolute dream to photograph. From the moment she arrived, she was calm, alert, and full of the sweetest little expressions that made this session so special.

We kept her session soft and simple with beautiful blush pink tones that perfectly complemented her delicate features. Wrapped up cozy with her tiny stuffed bear tucked close, Eliana gave us the most content little smiles and wide-eyed moments. I always love capturing those early newborn details — the tiny fingers, soft wisps of hair, and the peaceful expressions that change so quickly in those first few weeks.

Mini newborn sessions are ideal for families seeking a shorter session that focuses entirely on their baby. They allow us to create timeless portraits while keeping the experience relaxed and easy for new parents. Eliana’s session was a perfect example of how beautiful and meaningful a simple setup can be.

One of my favorite things about photographing newborns around the one-week mark is how fresh and new everything still feels. These first days pass by so quickly, and preserving those tiny details becomes something families treasure forever.

Thank you to Eliana’s family for trusting me to capture these precious memories. She is absolutely beautiful, and it was such an honor to document this special season for your family.

If you are expecting and considering newborn portraits, I recommend scheduling them during pregnancy to ensure availability around your due date. Newborn sessions are ideally photographed within the first 5–14 days after birth for those sleepy, curled-up poses and fresh newborn details.
