The Hirsch family | Lifestyle
It’s not often I get to hang out with a guy from the National Weather Service, so this shoot was especially fun for me. Matt works at the Phoenix office and I didn’t get to meet him when I had a brief tour during the summer. So it was awesome to chill out with him, Keren, Julian and Emma! No, we didn’t talk about the weather the ENTIRE time, but there was definitely some pretty nerdy moments going on. Emma just recently started sitting up, so Keren wanted to get some family photos. Emma is also quite skilled at cute [...]
Roman | Newborn
This was a first for me. I shot Dee and Iuliana’s wedding back on January 1st, 2011. Almost a year later, little man Roman was born and I got to meet him last Sunday. Stuff like this makes me love what I do. Being able to tell stories through photos over time. So awesome. Now Roman was born back on December 11th and usually when you photograph a newborn, it’s best in the first 10 days because they sleep all the time and pretty much will just lay there for you. But Roman was born three weeks early, so I [...]
Meet Roman | Newborn
One year and eight days ago I photographed the wedding of Dee and Iulia. Yesterday I took some pictures of their brand new baby boy Roman. He literally slept the entire time. More to come.
Welcome to the world baby Nathan
I’ve photographed a handful of newborn babies now and I always, always have fun. But this little dude was something extra special. Nathan was born just under two weeks ago to a mom who was young and not in a great position to care for her baby. She arrived at the hospital in labor and decided to place him for adoption. Some of you may know my wife and I have also been in the process of trying to adopt ever since this summer. In going through the classes to become certified for adoption, we met some absolutely amazing people. [...]
Meet baby Nathan
This is Nathan Carlyle. Less than two weeks old. Unbelievably. Cute. Baby. More to come.
Baby Caleb and family
The most amazing thing about having kids is that you completely forget how small they used to be. This little guy is Caleb Joseph and at the time of the photos was only five days old. Soooo tiny. So absolutely cute and adorable as well. I’m just so used to my little girl who is going on three…it’s almost a shock when you see a newborn. And so much fun. We love this family. They’ve been awesome friends to us over the years. I did a photoshoot for them back in May of 2010 and it’s just so cool to [...]
Introducing Caleb Joseph
Caleb Joseph…born to some dear friends of ours over the weekend. The third of their clan, he’s just as cute as the rest of them. Had a blast doing a little shoot with this baby boy and his family yesterday…enjoy the sneak peek, more to come!
Photoshoot: Baby Giuliana {chandler baby photographer}
First we did the baby shower, then the maternity shoot and finally baby Guiliana arrived and it was such a blessing to meet her and see how much joy she’s brought her new, very tired parents. These are some of my favorite moments from the photoshoot. All the photos were taken using natural light from nearby windows and my wonderful 50mm 1.4 lens. I’ve done a few of these newborn shoots now and I’ve realized that my style is an attempt to capture the warmth, love and beauty of a new baby and his or her parents. I don’t mind [...]
A few more of Giuliana {chandler newborn photographer}
I couldn’t resist posting just a few more shots from Saturday’s shoot with week-old baby Giuliana and her proud parents. You could just see the love everyone has for this little girl, including grandma who helped get things setup, grabbed emergency diapers and provided moral support for all of us! Definitely love this little moment above between Giuliana and her dad…tender, cute, sweet…just perfect. And yes, an obligatory feet shot below…you just gotta have that one. I’ll be posting my favorites from the shoot in a day or two.
Sneak peak: Baby Giuliana {chandler baby photographer }
She’s finally here. Baby Giuliana, just a week old and as cute as a button. First I was snapped photos at mom’s baby shower back in June, then the maternity shoot a week later and today I was blessed to meet the little girl responsible for all of it! I have a ton of stuff going on today, tons of pictures to go through, demands at my real job (on a Saturday, ugh!), but I had to post this one…I just love her little face here and mom’s caring, adoring look at her very first child. What a fun time…and [...]
