Lyla | Best Newborn Photographers in Seattle

Before every newborn photography session, I ask my clients to fill out a pre-session questionnaire so I can get an idea of what their goals are for their session. I like to know if there are certain colors they would like to incorporate, and almost as important if there are colors they want to avoid.  This momma wanted some soft pinks and lavender and she gave me the idea to include fresh flowers as well. It had been a long time since I used flowers in a newborn session and I kind of love the way everything came together. We started the session photographing miss Lyla with her big brother, went right into capturing photos of the whole family, and then I finished photographing Lyla on her own. Even though she peeped her eyes open a few times throughout, she pretty much slept the entire time. Sharing a few of my favorites from her session below. You can find a before and after of the bucket shot on my Instagram in the reels section.  Voted one of the “Best Newborn Photographers in Seattle” more than 4 years in a row by Expertise.

Miles | Tacoma Baby Photographer

One of the best things about meeting new clients is getting to know them and hearing their personal stories and the little details of their lives.  For this family, it was all about the mini cooper – which also happens to be this little man’s nickname. Momma even brought a little car to the session so we could include it in a few of the photos. Sharing a few of my favorites below.  I loved how the little dude slept so good right up until the end when he popped his little eyes open and gave me a few photos where he was staring right at me!  I think the eye open shots are always the best.

Braxton | Tacoma Baby Photographer

Do you know those sessions where you get the perfect combination of sleepy/awake/solo/family/sibling photos? Well, this was one of those sessions! I met this family a few years ago when I photographed their maternity session when their little girl was in momma’s belly. Over the course of a couple of years, I’ve gotten to see them and gotten to know them and I’m just so blessed that they continue to choose me over and over to capture those precious moments in their lives. This little man peeking at me with his curious eyes… I was smitten from the start.

Sharing a few of my favorites from Braxton’s session below. Please check out my Instagram page for current work and behind the scenes photos, or use the contact page to find out more information about booking your own newborn session with me, Tacoma Baby Photographer, Dawn Potter now.

Beckett | Tacoma Cake Smash Photographer

It’s been such a strange time; photographing sessions with babies while wearing a mask isn’t an easy thing to do. Most babies haven’t really been out much since the pandemic began and stranger danger is a very real thing at this age. When this little man came in to see me he was ALL SMILES. It didn’t happen right away, but that’s okay because the important part is that IT HAPPENED! Sharing a few of my favorites from this little man’s cake smash session. The outfits featured are from my studio collection.  If you are looking for the best Tacoma cake smash photographer, please contact me for more information on scheduling.

Asher | Tacoma Newborn & Family Portraits Session

Would you believe me if I told you that I photographed big brother’s newborn session when he arrived, too? It’s pretty incredible the number of clients I have coming back with their second and third newborns. I feel so blessed to be able to do this for a living. I love the gorgeous earthy tones that momma wanted to incorporate for Asher’s session. And his skin tone was so beautiful that he would have looked good on any color.

Sharing a few of my favorites below. (This session was photographed back in 2019 and I’m just now finally sharing it on my website.) Please follow my Instagram for current work and sneak peeks and behind the scenes photos.

i believe...

every photograph tells a story. capturing moments that would otherwise be forgotten. moments that can not be replicated or reproduced. moments that that are unique in meaning to every person who sees them. moments that you can not get back.

a photograph allows you the opportunity to relive those moments over and over again. these moments shape the story of our lives, and everyone has a story to tell.

let me help you tell yours.
