It's no secret that maternity is a truly special time in a woman's life (well, the family's life, really). Some women cherish their pregnant bodies and this time of expectation, preparation, and pondering, while others hope to get through it as quickly as possible, to finally meet the new center of their life. Whichever side of spectrum you are on, it's worth stopping for a minute, looking in the mirror, and seeing the inner glow, the beauty, the harmony…
I often get asked what's the difference between a traditional and lifestyle newborn session, and what's better. While it's easy to answer the first question, the second is really up in the air. Here, I will go into detail of what a traditional newborn session looks and feels like, and what you might expect. In the next blogpost, I will go over a lifestyle newborn shoot.

The mood of the session can be anything: from playful to glamorous, from light and airy to dark and moody, from pin-up to serious, but what's going…
This past spring wasn't generous in warm sunny days. Just the opposite, rain and clouds were the usual and predictable attributes of all days, especially week-ends :/; temperatures barely climbed into mid-sixties only to drop back to 50F. Trees and bushes didn't start blooming till the very end of April, making it quite a long, dreary, and dull beginning of the spring.
