    These are so fun. I love the Walmart shot…lol. And the dog…so perfect! I wish we got half the snow you did! Chicago keeps missing the big storms. Looks like you had a wonderful day!

    Beautiful shots, Sara. I love the picture of the ducks taking off, oh, and the macro shot of the flower! I can’t believe your dog fell in the water! I would have panicked big time – how scary! So glad you both are okay 🙂

  • jordan parks - February 15, 2013 - 10:54 am

    SARA! These are all kinds of awesome!!!! Such a busy day! I love that bokeh snow, too:)

  • Audrey Amaro - February 15, 2013 - 11:39 am

    Oh I would have been freaking out if that was my dog!! I’m glad all was well.
    I love the Gerbera daisies, they are my sister’s favorite, now I want to go and buy her some!

    Love your color palette, the sparkles on the snow, the story of your dog rescue! It feels like such a happy relaxing Sunday. Nice variety of images too- nice work girl!

  • Nancy - February 15, 2013 - 7:19 pm

    I love the shot of the ducks taking off in fright (the movement of their wings unfurling)..what an awesome picture….

  • Cathy - February 16, 2013 - 1:44 am

  • Anisha - February 18, 2013 - 5:29 pm

    I LOVE this blog post!!! Thank GOD you did not fall through the ice omg – so scary!! I would have hardcore panicked ahh! haha. Ok thanks for telling me you had a sorta selfie in there – it totally counts but you know the kind of selfies I want to see ahem ;D And I think my favorite one is the two snow ones..cant believe you had that much snow but also, the sparkling snow is sooo so pretty. I haven’t ever experienced that much snow but the pictures suffice 🙂

Just finished up the edits on these newborn shots while I’ve been off for a few days over the holidays.  Isn’t he gorgeous?  Like I mentioned in my last post (his sneak peek), he was 5 weeks old for this session, but because he was also 5 weeks early, I think it really helped in […]

    These are really sweet. I really love that first one. He looks like an angel.

  • Michelle Thompson - January 7, 2012 - 10:01 am

    Hi Sara, I found you from a pin someone did on pinterest. I love these newborn photos. Do you use a beanbag chair for these? I read that you only use natural light, so do you ever use an external flash or reflectors?

  • Jen Spacer - January 8, 2012 - 2:58 pm

    like seriously Sara, these are the most adorable newborn photos I’ve seen. Do you mind if I ask where you got that fur from?

  • Heather - January 9, 2012 - 10:03 am

    these are really cute and so unique Sara. Great job!

  • Sara - January 9, 2012 - 10:23 am

    Hi Jen,
    I purchased the fur online from fabricdepot.com (this one is called Silver Frost)

  • Laura Morita-Yeun - January 9, 2012 - 1:29 pm

    What a gorgeous baby! Love his expression in that last one.

  • CharmedOne - January 12, 2012 - 1:54 am

As I stated in my previous post, I scheduled a round of Family Mini-Sessions for the fall season to get some beautiful warm colours.  What a long day it turned out to be but thankfully it was so warm and beautiful out.  I actually contacted my husband to bring my boys to the location so […]
