Baby Bobenich 1-18-2015

When my friend Jenna found out she was pregnant, she asked me if I could take newborn portraits once the baby arrived. I was nervous, since I'd never done a newborn shoot before, but I had 9 months to prepare after all, so of course I agreed! And I do really just love babies!! 

Baby Bobenich arrived on January 9th, 2015 and we made plans to do the shoot a week later. After reading everything I could find (books, blogs, articles..) on newborn shoots and watching countless youtube videos, I learned that the first 10 days are the best for these types of shoots. That way baby is a little less alert and sleepy. 

We set up the shoot in the master bedroom, with layers of towels and blankets on the bed, and a space heater on full blast (note to self, do not wear a sweater next time!) to keep baby nice and toasty. The shoot took longer than any I've done before (I expected this) and was also my favorite! Little Bailey was such a sweet baby and I could have taken her picture for days! 

We did a few different set ups and experimented a bit, and of course got a few with big sister Paige!  Here are some of my favorites from the shoot. Enjoy!

Christmas has come and gone once again, and despite having bronchitis, it was a pretty good one! My family is Italian American, and Catholic at that, so Christmas Eve is a big deal for us. We do the Feast of the Seven Fishes, though to be honest, I don't think we break 5 anymore! All 17 of us (that is just my immediate family plus my nieces and nephews) gathered at my mother's house this year. I, being sick, forgot my camera, so I had to use my cell phone to capture some memories. 

Christmas day was spent with my husband's family, at his mother's farmhouse in the country. This year we did a Pollyanna, which worked out really well. I got a new polarizing filter and a step up ring from by brother in law! Can't wait do try it out! 

I did remember my camera on Christmas day, and with good reason, since my super awesome, amazing husband got me a Mark III!!! Here are some photos from the holiday, and also from my husbands 40th Birthday, which we celebrated on December 27th. 

Wishing you all a Happy New Year! Enjoy!

    About Andrea

    I'm a Bethlehem based photographer with a focus on people and places! I love capturing couples, families, and babies, as well as photographing nature, landscapes, cityscapes, and street photography.

    I'm married to my best friend and we're parents to a crazy cat named Nesta and a rescue pup named McLovin.  In the summer I enjoy hiking, riding my trail bike along the Delaware or Lehigh canals, swimming at the Jersey Shore, and tending to my backyard vegetable garden. In the winter I ski almost every weekend at Shawnee Mountain. I also love to cook, read and travel.  I come from a loud & crazy Italian family, which means I am loud & crazy most of the time!  ​
