Capturing Newborns in a studio setting| Jacki G. Photography LLC| Richmond, VA| Newborn & Family Photographer

As a newborn photographer, I have the privilege of capturing the beauty and innocence of brand new babies and the joy of the families welcoming them into the world. Newborn photography is a unique and special type of photography that requires a lot of patience, creativity, and a gentle touch.

One of the most important aspects of newborn photography is safety. When posing newborns, it's crucial to prioritize their comfort and well-being. This means using proper support and techniques to ensure that the baby is always secure and never in any danger.

In addition to safety, it's important to create a calm and relaxing environment for the photoshoot. Newborns can be unpredictable, so it's essential to be flexible and go with the flow. Taking breaks as needed, and rescheduling if the baby is fussy or not feeling well, is always the best course of action.

Creating beautiful and timeless images of newborns is also about finding the right poses and lighting. I like to use minimal props and clutter so to just focus on the new baby.

As a newborn photographer, it's a joy and a privilege to be able to capture these special moments for families. The bonds and love that I see between parents and their new arrival never fail to inspire me, and it's a honor to be able to preserve these memories for them through my photography.

Spring Studio sessions| Jacki G. Photography LLC| Richmond, VA | Family & Newborn Photographer

Spring mini studio sessions were a hit! The weather this early spring has been unpredictable so i chose to add some in studio session dates for the little ones! I have a few backdrops to choose from as well as two Easter bunny outfits for babies between 6 months to 9 months old. The backdrops I have can hold up to two to three children and so much fun. The mini session is located in my short pump, VA home studio. The mini is 15 min and you get 5 digital downloads, each additional download is an additional cost. Take a look at a few of my favorites from my studio sessions.

Fall mini sessions| Jacki G. Photography| Richmond, VA| Family & Newborn Photographer

These are a few of my sessions from the FAll mini sessions. Fall is my favorite season, the colors are just beautiful and the weather in VA was perfect for these families. I offer Fall minis every year and I love to see families come back for their annual portraits; its a bonus when I also meet new families.

I offered a fall backdrop as well so it was nice when it was a bit cold outside for the little ones.
