The one that gave me baby fever | Long Island Newborn Photographer | September Blue Photography

Don’t know why, but holding this one was what did it.  Could’ve been because she was a sweet little girl and I had two boys, could’ve been because she was my good friend’s daughter; could’ve been because it was HER third, could’ve been her sweet temperament. Whatever it was…it hit me. For real.  Baby fever.  Baby Charlotte’s session was in May 2011 and in June 2011, I found out I was pregnant with #3.

I’m back! | Long Island Newborn Photographer | September Blue Photography

Oh it’s been awhile and so much has happened!  An intensely busy Summer 2011 season, an even busier Fall 2011 season, some ups and downs, a pregnancy, and then… the birth of my third, a little girl!    And here we are and it’s almost the Summer season again!   In that time I had the privilege of photographing so many gorgeous families, so many unique and precious newborns, and lots of gorgeous moms-to-be.  If you were following me on Facebook, you caught glimpses of my work as the months went on, but I have so, so many amazing sessions that I want to share.  So many images that deserve to be seen bigger, and so many beautiful clients that deserve a little spotlight!

So, now that I am back from maternity leave, I plan to really catch up around here.  I will be showing my work from the Summer 2011 and Fall 2011 season here on the blog, updating my website and blog with fresh work, and my Facebook page will still show my most recent sneak peeks as they happen.  So stop by the blog every once in awhile to check out what new “old” stuff is up!

In the meantime – I will share just one of my sweet little Leia Madison…definitely one of my most challenging newborn sessions because it’s so difficult to photograph your own newborn.  Not just because of the c-section but so many other issues when it’s your own!  Anyway, I did manage to get a “few” ;)   I’ll share her full session later.  For now here is one of my favorites: simple & pure, no fancy headbands or hats, no flashy props…just sweet, sweet, baby.

Falling in love | Long Island Newborn Photographer | September Blue Photography

Back in April, I hosted a 1 on 1 newborn workshop with and for another local photographer (Tatiana of www.tinyclicksphotography.com) and I fell in love… with macro.   Now - I’ve always tried to capture those sweet little baby parts and I’ve always loved them (especially baby feet, love baby feet!) but I never knew love like this before.  And this first image was the shot that made me fall in love… As you might have guessed, a Nikkor 105mm 2.8 VR has found a permanent home in my camera bag!  Below you will find baby Colin and baby Maja, our two adorable workshop models.

Another gorgeous newborn girl…I’ve had so many newborn girls in the past few months and so few newborn boys. 

This little girl was quite smiley…and let me try lots of fun new stuff.

Beautiful Baby J | Long Island Newborn Photographer | September Blue Photography

The busy outdoor season is officially in full swing (yay!) and so blog posts will get a bit shorter, but maybe more frequent as I try really hard to catch up, and you’ll see lots more fun outdoor work which I am excited to show and even more excited to shoot.

This is beautiful baby J, yes she is definitely indoor… with a touch of the outdoors brought to her session.  This prop is real and I love it for that reason.  It makes it that much more unique.  It weighs a ton but again, love it.  It’s currently undergoing a metamorphosis of sorts as it gets dried and treated for future use.  While I looove the rich bark texture, I can’t wait to see how it’s going to look when it gets it’s new look!

Clean + Simple + Connection | Long Island Maternity Photographer | September Blue Photography

      That’s what this maternity session was all about.   K & K’s connection was so easy to see and this mama to be’s connection to their soon-to-arrive baby girl was clearly there.  Her confidence, happiness, and pregnancy glow were all there.  And I loved capturing it.

Sisters | Long Island Newborn Photographer | September Blue Photography

So it seems that little girls still want little sisters, regardless of how many sisters they already have.  These two were positively delighted to welcome the third baby girl to the family.  Can’t say that I blame them… after all we girls… well, we are pretty awesome.   While I have no biological sisters, I am lucky enough to have several cousins that I consider sisters as well as a few amazing sisters-in-law that I adore and would prefer to just to drop that pesky ”in-law” part.  So I can relate.  The more the merrier.  And there’s room for at least one more over here… just waiting for a certain someone to pop a certain question…  But back to these beautiful sisters….

Sally | Long Island Maternity Photographer | September Blue Photography

Another beautiful mama-to-be.  Sally was a natural at this… she just looked awesome in every pose and every outfit.  But even better, she was so good at conveying her connection to her little one the way in these images…

 

  Loved this top that she brought along – usually shiny stuff doesn’t photograph well, but this one looked so cute.

New Site & Blog are Live! (Day 4) | Long Island Newborn Photographer | September Blue Photography

So we are pretty much live with the new site, new blog and new look – what do you think?!  =) I am still working on a few more changes to the blog, studio pics still need to go up at some point and somewhere, and we are still working out some minor glitches here and there – right now everything is best viewed in 1024 x 768 resolution (or preferably higher resolution) in Mozilla FireFox 3.6.16 or later and in IE8 or later with a few minor bumps.   But please take a look around and leave me a comment!  Check out the Facebook and Twitter sliders on the left, the new work up on the site (including a featured session which I plan to update monthly), and the updated About Me section here on the blog which will tell you a bit more about my approach and my style.   I have to send out a huge thanks to Tatiana of Tiny Clicks Photography for the photos of me and pullbacks you see on the site.  She’s awesome!!  Tatiana -  you know what I just realized we didn’t do that day? Get a pic of us together!!!    So here’s one of her, in action during the workshop at my studio. =)

Day 3 – The Trendsetter | Long Island Photographer | September Blue Photography

Rounding out day three…  you might notice things look a little different around here.  I’ve overhauled my site, splash page and blog with the help of a talented and creative web designer.  It’s been a work in progress over the last couple of months and finally it’s almost done! We are still working out the minor glitches here and there but I’m soooo excited about it!   Official announcement coming soon… in the meantime…this is how excited I am about it!

Yeah, that’s me in the air on the beach in Punta Cana this past February.    I set James (my husband) up with the 70-200 lens and we got some funny looks and smiles while we were rehearsing the shot.  After a few takes we got it and went back to our beach chairs with our drinks.  And what do you know… within a few minutes there were families, children, and couples launching themselves as high as they could into the air on the beach and pressing shutters furiously.  It was a GREAT site to see.  You know why? Because they were all laughing hysterically and having a blast doing it.  Yeah that’s me, the trendsetter.  LOL
