Denver Newborn Baby Photographer. Newborn Baby Photography in Denver, CO //Harper {5 days old}

I fell in love with this family, for many reasons… I was counting the days to hear the news about Harper’s birth… I was so excited to meet Harper, that I stayed in touch and kept checking in 🙂 I am so happy to welcome Harper into this world and capture these priceless first portraits for her family to treasure!

Please, allow me to share with you what Harper’s mom wrote to me, the words that brought happy tears to my eyes… and not because of the appreciation, gratitude and admiration of my work, but the way they feel about their first daughter, Harper. Here it is :

“As I searched for a newborn photographer in Denver your work absolutely stood above any other photographer’s work that I could find.  When I ran across your website I immediately knew that I wanted to have you photograph our baby girl. I have always dreamed to have my baby photographed in this way.  The art behind your newborn photography is fascinating to me.  As a child, I was in love with Anne Geddes photography.  I had all of her books.  Your work reminded me of her work.

 Marina, you were immensely helpful during the preparation process as well as photo session. I was impressed that you had spent over a couple of hours with me when we first met to discuss doing a session.  Then you spent a lot of time with me making sure colors were right, that you were taking shots that I would personally connect with and making sure I like the background and props.  I wanted to capture the love of us as parents and then I also wanted beautiful photos of her. I went with lighter color clothing because I like a more natural look.  I choose the accessories and props based on what I thought went best with our home and her nursery.  And you took to heart the photos that I sent you via Pinterest and you made it your mission to ensure that captured exactly what we wanted.
The results are fantastic.  You captured incredible photos of our little angel and we will cherish these photos forever.  Your work is art that is well beyond photography.  How you mold the baby and work with the baby during the session is truly amazing. I am in awe of your talent and the work that you produce.
The session captures a complete change in our lives.  It is incredibly special to welcome our little girl into our lives.  Words can’t describe the feeling.  We are looking forward to taking long walks on the beach with our little Harper, spending time on the water, teaching her to swim and spending time hiking and enjoying the snowy mountains in the winter. I am most proud to just be her mom.  She adds tremendous joy into our lives and offers us a love that is incomparable to anything we have experienced.”

Denver Newborn Baby Photographer. Newborn Baby Photography in Denver, CO //Levi {5 days old}

Welcome Levi! His loving and beautiful family now is feeling even more happy and content with Levi’s arrival 🙂 Here is what Levi’s mommy shared with me:

“…I wanted to capture my son as a newborn. Within six weeks he doubled in size (weight and length).  All I have left of that special stage in his life are these beautiful photos. These photos represent innocence, a new beginning, life changes and love. I will never have him at that stage again; it lasted for only so long. I fully regret not doing the same for my first child.

When I first met you, at that promotional photo event, my daughter was getting her photos taken and I was about 7 months pregnant. You brought some of your professional work with you. Looking at them, I knew that I would not pass up a chance to capture my second child as a newborn.

You helped me prepare for this session tremendously by meeting with my husband and I ahead of time.  When we met about a month before my son’s due date, we went over the costs and discussed expectations of the photo shoot on both our ends (ie: when to arrive, how long the session will take, the different poses we will use, props to accessorize the shoot, etc.). We wanted to capture the feeling. So when we started choosing the props, we chose what felt right and what came to us.

We also saved dates in the calendar. I was relieved to know that we didn’t just save one date. Rather you saved about a week in your schedule.  This was done so that after the baby was born we had some flexibility on when to have the session. The calendar block helped out a lot because not only did I need a little more time to heal from the delivery post hospital stay, my husband was working and his schedule wasn’t as flexible.

And now, I am so pleased with the results. The photos are sharp and clear. The props used and the way the baby was positioned in the photos look timeless. The photos remind me of how far we have come and how precious those moments were; the purpose of taking these photos was fulfilled.

This session reflects on innocence, the early stages of my baby’s life, the sweet moments I had alone with him postpartum, the wonderful changes in our family’s life, and a new love.

I am proud that my baby was healthy and thriving at that age; that was the most important thing to me. Now at a little over 2 months, he lifts his head up, he can recognize faces, he is cooing and cawing, and he is finally sleeping long hours at night (almost 6 hours!).

We didn’t quite get ready for the session. I had an outfit for my daughter to wear for the “sibling” part and my husband and I cleaned up (showered, did our hair, applied very little makeup). We wanted the inspiration to come to us in the moment. I am not one to prepare every single detail as it takes away from the natural feeling of taking photos. In the end, the results were perfect. The portraits turned out easy-going, relaxed, spontaneous; it captured a beautiful feeling and a beautiful moment.”
