Newborn Safety

I just wanted to share a quick before and after with you guys. When my husband saw the after, he told me he loved the picture but it looked a little scary. So in case anyone else thought the same thing, I thought I would show you guys how we did it. I took a picture of the guitar by itself first and then we put the sweet little girl on the guitar next. Mom held the guitar still and dad held her the entire time. Then after our session, I worked a little Photoshop magic and combined the two photos. I definitely would never put a little one at risk of any danger while taking pictures. They are way too precious for that!! ♥

Sweet Newborn Baby Girl {Carrollton TX Newborn Photographer}

I absolutely LOVED getting to spend an afternoon with this sweet little one and her parents.  Isn't she just beautiful?!

One of my favorite things about newborn sessions is getting to specialize the session with things that are important to their family.  I love it because it allows me to be creative and lets each session have its own unique feel.  So when I was talking to the mom about this session and she mentioned dad was a musician and wanted pictures with his guitar, I was super excited.  I loved that we got to pose her with the guitar, along with some things from her nursery and her special blanket and lambs too.

When I showed my husband this picture, it was one of his favorites he said.  He also mentioned it looked a little scary.  I will tell you though there is a special trick to this picture.  Dad's hands were always holding his little girl on the guitar.  Mom held the guitar steady the whole time too.  I will try to post the pictures I used to make this composite soon so you can see what I mean.  (Newborn safety is so important to me.  I won't attempt shots unless I know a way to do them safely.  The little ones are definitely too precious to take any chances with.)

Such a beautiful family!  ♥

The sweet details...those teeny, tiny fingers and toes.  LOVE!
