My absolute favorite thing to do for a newborn session

May 08, 2018 in Laura Farr Photography

The older I'm getting the more I'm understanding how beautiful newborn sessions can be. For me personally it's not just about photographing the little one, but my absolute favorite thing to do is to capture those who are impacted BY that new little one. The older siblings, the dad and of course the mother. Everyone in the family has such a unique and special connection with that little one and that is by far my favorite thing to capture!

One of my very first family photo sessions I ever did in Manhattan was with this family in Soho. I remember it well because I was a little nervous and was wearing one of my favorite shirts that had a pink dinosaur on it. Luckily the boys were really into dinosaurs and I got them to laugh and smile by basically scaring me with all their dinosaur roars!

The Progress Project

With having cancer, moving, having a baby and being in the middle of a pandemic, I took a break from photography and focused my attention on something I could easily do from home. My good friend Kristin and I started a podcast that turned into a lovely small business helping creative, intentional women make more time for what they love!

That’s why I’ve listed gifts that were life savers for me as well as some ideas from other friends who have also gone through cancer treatments.
