San Francisco Artistic Newborn Photographer | capturing the beauty of the awake newborn

 It is no secret that I love photographing newborns. And over the years I have developed purty good timing if I do say so myself. For those of you that do not know, an awake newborn is moving almost constantly, not to mention fussing frequently. So many photographers opt for the sleeping newborn - a beautiful subject for sure. In my newborn sessions I do capture the beauty of the sleeping newborn, but the bigger challenge is capturing an awake, naked newborn and timing the shot just right so that he actually looks calm (he was fussing off and on), is looking at the camera (thanks to colorful toys shaken in front of camera) and to have all of the body parts aligned so that none of the awkward bits and pieces are showing (no easy task with naked newborn boys!) And Voila - with the right timing you can capture the shot!  This one is from a fun natural light newborn home session in San Francisco today with Michael, Maria and their beautiful son Alexander.
