sebastian | portage mi newborn photographer

Sebastian’s mom and I had met at her maternity session, so I knew this was going to be a fun session. He’s their first and was eagerly awaited. He wasn’t so sure he wanted to be part of pictures at first, but once he settled in he was a dream baby. He’s wearing the driving cap look so well!portage-mi-newborn-boy-drivers-capThis session was shortly before Christmas, and I believe this picture was their Christmas card for the year:

Sebastian’s parents love mid-century modern (such cool furniture throughout their home!), and his dad is a big fan of vinyl, so we had to do a set up with a nod to both. He’s not going to fit on an album for long!

It was so much fun to incorporate Sebastian’s parents’ taste into his pictures. If this has sparked some ideas for your newborn pictures, contact me– I’d love to talk about ways to make your session unique!
