Family Photographer in Arlington VA | Newborn Session

As a family photographer who often shoots in Arlington, VA, I have found one of my greatest treasures is providing a luxury experience for my clients in Gainesville home studio. What a joy it is welcoming you all into a space I’ve curated so intentionally. It’s a safe harbor for my clients for some of their sweetest memories to unfold, and it’s the perfect way to document your growing family

Studio Newborn Session 

These four are repeat clients of mine from all the way back in 2020! We had the best time, and it was so sweet to see them back in the studio with baby girl number two. We were all thrilled to no longer be in “pandemic times.” It’s been quite a journey, and this entire session felt so peaceful and calm.

This studio newborn session with them was so beautiful and pairs beautifully with the images from their previous sessions. Big sister Grace was thrilled to get quality time with her new baby Emma. She loved showing off her new skills in this big-girl role. She was so gentle with her new baby sister and was so excited to get to hold her and love on her. She gave us all the smiles and gave baby Emma all the kisses!

The Details 

Mama and Grace wore pieces from the client wardrobe, and I love the coordination Mom did for everyone. Baby Emma was so sweet in the tiny white bow mom chose. She napped through most of the session and was just the best baby. Dad kept things super classic in chinos and a white button-down to bring everything together. I loved that you could see just how proud he is of all of his girls.

I loved documenting these new memories for them, and I can’t wait to watch these girls grow.

From The Mama:

“Emily is a truly talented photographer and a wonderful person. We’ve used Emily for multiple newborn sessions and family portraits and the photos are perfect every time. Emily has the ability to make mothers feel beautiful, comfortable and at ease. She moves through the session at a comfortable pace – without making you feel rushed or stressed. This is especially helpful when you’re juggling cranky toddlers with peacefully sleeping newborns – maximizing the time to get the best shots. We will cherish these photos forever!”
