There is something timeless about the first few weeks of life. The tiny toes. The soft curls. The way their fingers seem to fit perfectly in the curve of their cheek. Baby Callie’s newborn session was a quiet kind of magic that didn’t need a lot of words to be felt.

She fought so hard to stay awake. Those bright eyes kept peeking out as if she didn’t want to miss a single moment. But once she finally gave in to sleep, that was my cue to work a little magic and capture every sweet and snuggly detail.

Wrapped in soft textures and surrounded by oversized blooms, Callie drifted into the kind of deep baby sleep that makes everyone in the room whisper without even realizing it. Her little hands curled in, her toes peeked through the wrap, and she gave us the kind of stillness photographers dream about.

This session was captured in a studio in Northern Virginia, designed to keep things minimal, cozy, and focused on Callie’s natural beauty. The clean whites and soft pink tones gave her portraits a modern editorial touch, while the floral arrangement added just the right amount of sweetness.

For parents, these first portraits are more than just photos. They are heirlooms. A reminder of how small she was. How peaceful she looked. How fast everything changes.
