Seattle’s best newborn photographer, Dawn Potter Photography, a studio located in downtown Renton. Just a few miles south of downtown Seattle. The studio is spacious and fully equipped with everything needed to photograph your newborn session. For information on booking, please use the contact link to send an inquiry. Sessions often book a few months in advance so early booking is always recommended. Sharing a few of my favorites from this sweet baby girl’s newborn session.
As a newborn photographer, it can be very difficult to capture photos of brand new babies with their older siblings. Some come into the session willing and wanting to participate, and some want absolutely nothing to do with their new baby brother or sister. I’ve found age has very little to do with it and it’s literally just a roll of the dice. Well this sweet little girl came camera ready and gave her full cooperation the entire time. I was very impressed with her ability to sit still and even show a few smiles on camera.
The goal of every newborn session is to get calm, sleepy, and posed photos of babies. As a newborn photographer, I spend a lot of time (which requires a lot of patience) trying to hone my skill and capture the very best photos I can for my clients. We can follow all the protocols and work through all the steps to try to make sure the baby is nice and sleepy but at the end of the day, the baby is in charge and decides what they’re willing to put up with! This little man had a nice short sleepy session and woke up in the middle for all the cute eye-open shots. I think the cute little smile he flashed in the womb pose might be a favorite from his gallery.
If you are looking to book a newborn session, I highly recommend contacting me a few months before your due date as my calendar often books several weeks in advance. I hate turning clients away due to lack of availability but unfortunately, I can’t always fit people in. Use the ‘contact me’ button in the upper corner to send me an email.
Every once in a while, I decide I need to switch up my posing flow. For a long time, I was skipping past the egg wrap but one day, I decided to start adding it back in. I think switching things up a bit keeps it interesting and encourages me to try new things. Plus, every year when I teach workshops, it offers new material to mentees who may have taken a workshop with me in the past. Here are a few of my favorites from this little one’s newborn session.
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.
