Francesca | Newborn

Big sister Giavanna told me during her mama’s maternity session that the baby’s name was “baby Frankie” They still hadn’t decided on a name at that point and I had my fingers crossed that thy would go with Gia’s pick. Because how cute would that be?! Sure enough! Here is Francesca. <3 (Baby Frankie) And she was SO good for our newborn session.

Chelsea | Maternity

Chelsea and I joked about how her maternity session took place in the only January with NO snow. As upstate New Yorkers, usually we aren’t wishing for snow.. but this day, we probably both were. Honestly though, I’m not missing it. Chelsea stole the show with that pregnancy glow!

A big announcement!

I am SO excited to announce that ..

Light of Mine Photography is now offering a baby registry!

Your friends and family have already been asking what they can do for you. What do you and the baby need? How can they help? A shower or sprinkle is often held and gifts of cute tiny outfits and itty-bitty socks are given. Hey, maybe even a raffle is done and you get a stack of much needed diapers (one of the best things about baby showers). These things are of course wonderful and mostly necessary. But let’s be honest, the outfits are worn a handful of times and are either stained or outgrown and the socks never even stay on. I learned after baby #2 that sleepers are almost always the way to go for newborns. The diapers- well, they get pooed in. We all love the sweet little outfits, baby toys, and socks. Of course, I am by no means saying I wasn’t grateful for these types of gifts. I’m only suggesting that your mom, sisters, and BFFs would love contributing to something that lasts longer. Something meaningful. I would say photographs that quite literally freeze these fleeting moments for you is pretty darn valuable.

How does it work? Once you have inquired and know that I have availability on my calendar around your due date for the type of sessions(s) you are looking to do, fill out the form provided on my registry page under “request a listing.” Once that is complete, a custom page is created for you. Use the link to share with friends and family in your shower invitation or when they ask what you still need for the baby!

I have been wanting to offer this for a very long time now and truly hope this can be useful for you as you prepare for your little one’s arrival!

Without further ado,

To go check it out!

Mae | Birth

“9 months” is always the amount of time people say when referring to pregnancy. Technically, it’s 40 weeks which is more like 10 months. But not for Caroling. Her baby was still quite comfortable in their warm, cozy home at 42 weeks and had to coaxed out with an induction. This surprise gender baby had a waiting room full of excited family members waiting to hear the news! It was so fun being able to see their reactions and watch everyone meet this precious baby GIRL. Welcome to the world Mae!
