Austin | Denver Newborn Photography

There is nothing more sweet than an in-home newborn session. I absolutely LOVE my newborn sessions, they make me feel so zen + peaceful. I love doing these sessions when baby is between 5 to 14 days old (I feel like day 7 is the "golden" time personally, but really any day between those days is good). This is when baby is at the sleepiest, curliest, easiest to swaddle + nurse or bottle feed back to sleep. This age is when you get the sleepy "newborn" photos you are envisioning.

Sweet alert baby Austin was an exception to the rule here...he just so happened to be born in the early COVID madness, we had his newborn session scheduled but for safety measures I pushed it back. We did these when he was about one month old + he actually did perfectly! Sometimes you just have to roll with the punches when it comes to life + this little man is already super resilient + amazing. He starred at me the entire session like he wanted to tell me life's secrets + I melted.

If you would like to book your newborn session for the future months (it's always best to book when you're pregnant to make sure you get on my books), I would love to chat! Please email me at smile@melissademersphoto.com or you can call/text me at (949) 355-3060 - I come to your home with minimal props such as swaddles + crates/baskets (all super sanitized + washed thoroughly of course). We include family + sibling photos as well as baby by him/herself. I look forward to hearing from you!

Thank you P family for letting me capture these moments of your son, Austin. Such a precious gem. xo
