Newborn Photography with baby M. | Jacki G. Photography LLC| Newborn & Family Photographer| Richmond, VA

Introducing baby M. 7 days new. I had the honor of photographing her sister 11 months prior. I love when families come back as their family grows. Big sis did a great job with her little sister. Baby M. was just perfect for her Studio session at my home studio in Richmond, VA. Mom chose sage green and pink for her colors adn the bed and swing for props. The deluxe newborn session can take 2-3 hrs. The studio is warmed up to 80 degrees to help keep baby calm and sleepy. I try and photograph family and siblings first then concentrate on just baby. Please check out my website for more information. Here are a few from sweet M. newborn session.

Madison & Josh Proposal| Jacki G. Photography LLC| Family & Newborn Photographer| Richmond, VA

It's hard to beat a beautiful spring Cherry Blossom proposal at Windsor Farms, VA ... especially when it's at golden hour, and the soon to be bride is your daughter!!

If you couldn't tell already... this was an epic proposal!

Josh had asked for my daughters hand in marriage a few weeks prior and I was so happy for them. They met their Sophmore year in college. My daughter is a Senior in College now and will graduate in May. I suggested the Cherry Blossoms because my daughter had already asked me to take their photos so this would a perfect suprise and she would be all dressed up with out even realizing what was about to happen.

The day was perfect mid 70s full bloomed cherry blossoms. We arrived and from the start i guess Josh couldn’t wait so he proposed . Madison was so giddy and excited. It was such an honor to photograph my baby girls engagemnt. I wish nothing but happiness and love for their next adventure.

It was a joy to be a part of such a sweet moment for these two... congratulations to Josh & Madison on your engagement! I love you both!

Traveling to photograph a newborn| Richmond, VA| Jacki G. Photography LLC| Newborn & Family Photographer

Here's a sneak peek of beautiful baby G. Her parents flew me out to Nebraska for her newborn session. It was pretty cool to travel to Colorado and rent a car. I got to see Colorado, Wyoming and Nebraska. A little back story, a client who used to live in Richmond then moved to Nebraska told a friend who loved my work and flew me out. Little Miss G was just perfect! She was so tiny about 5lbs and we got to use a lot of the parents props since i wasn’t able to travel with a lot.

She's simply the sweetest thing ever!

I’m located in Short Pump, VA and have specialized in Maternity, Newborn, baby and family photography for over 11 years. It was an absolute pleasure to travel to photograph a newborn.

Welcome to the world S. 9 days new| Jacki G. Photography LLC| Newborn and Family Photographer| Richmond, VA

Darling newborn baby S. 9 days new made her appearance in my studio recently... she even brought along her two big brothers who I also photographed as a newborn.

I hope you enjoy a peek into her session. I love to photograph growing families. I try and photograph siblings and parents first then concentrate on the newborn. The studio gets very warm so be prepared. I have a few puzzles and toys for the older siblings to play with while I photograph their new baby sibling. If the other parent wants to take the older siblings home or back to school that is also an option.

This little one had me working for these images but you wouldn’t know it from the perfect little images.

If you would like to book a session with me please reach out via email. My online scheduler isn’t always up to date.

Newborn Photography by Jacki G. Photography| Richmond, VA| Family & Newborn Photographer

The sweetest new family of 4 here on my blog today!

I cannot get over their baby girl and how well she did for her session and Big brother was so good with her. Here are a handful of my favorites from this in home studio newborn session!

Maternity session with K. | Jacki G. Photography| Richmond, VA | Family & Newborn Photographer

K. came into the studio in the middle of her third trimester for a fine art maternity shoot. I first worked with her when she was pregnant with her first baby. We had an amazing session and Big Sis was so adorable. Check out some of my favorites from her session.

If you're expecting a baby or already a parent and looking for a newborn, maternity, or family photographer, I would love to work with you to create images that you will love for a lifetime.

Introducing C. 2 wks new | Jacki G. Photography| Richmond, VA| Family & Newborn Photography

I truly love it when my clients come back for new family members. I photographed big Brothers when he was just a few weeks old. And I loved seeing this beautiful and sweet family again. They booked the Grow with me package which include three sessions as least. Little C. was 2 wks old and just the cutest little boy. He did so well during his session. Big Brother who is just 17 months old loved holding his little brother.

I look forward to documenting his first year.

Maternity Session with E. | Richmond, VA| Family & Newborn Photography | Jacki G. Photography

I just cannot say enough about this couple. ! I first met them when I photographed E. first maternity session at Midlothian Mines park. They booked the Grow with me package which includes a minimum of three sessions. I photographed their little boys newborn session at their home which is an option and his One year milestone session. The grow with me package includes 20 digital per session, a mobile app. a 16x 20 canvas and an 8x8 album of their three or more sessions.

This was taken at midlothian mines for her first pregnancy.

this image was taken during her first maternity session.

This maternity session took place at the beautiful Sunday Park with it’s beautiful water ways, boats, and dock this made for an excellent location for photograph her maternity session The backdrop was just beautiful But that’s just the background. How beautiful does Mom look in her gown? She looks so at one with nature. I cannot get over how elegant she looks . So lovely! 

It was so fun getting to take pictures of the whole family too. Little P. who is only 16 months old gave us a few smiles for the camera!

I’m looking forward to photographing their new little one. I travel to their home. This is an option for many who would prefer not to leave their house and travel with a newborn. I do have all the props and studio lights for their session. I sanitize everything after each session. Stay tuned to see their new addition. having him in the studio! Our time together during the shoot was yet another great experience with them. I’m so happy for this family, and I can’t wait to meet their new addition.

Lifestyle photography| Jacki G. Photography| Richmond, VA| Family & Newborn Photographer

G. was 8 days old when i traveled to VA beach for his newborn session. I photographed his older brother a few years prior. I love when i get to photograph families as they grow their families.

The family was so adoable during the session. Big Brother wasn’t that interested in baby brother but i did manage to get a few great shots of them together. I took some posed portraits of the family and siblings then we took a few lifestyle images as well to round out this adorable session.

For the first half of the newborn session G. was wide awake and eager to show me his gorgeous eyes that sparkled just like his mothers! In all my years of photographing newborns the ones where they look straight into my lens has to be one of my all-time favorites. When a newborn baby looks right at you with eyes as big as dinner plates, you can’t help but wonder what they’re thinking about and what beautiful things they will see in their lifetime. Getting to be part of that world is something I will never get tired of experiencing.

Capturing parents with their babies is so important to me – it’s a tangible memory you’ll never want to forget, and one you’ll cherish as your little one grows into a bigger version of themselves. That’s why newborn photography is so special to me, and why I absolutely adore my job as a photographer (which is more like a passion than work!). I’m essentially creating a blueprint for your life with your child, and you’ll have tons of stunning images to look back on to remember the sweet moments you spent, holding your newborn in your arms, gushing over how much you love them.

These are just a few of the images from G. gallery.
