hospital session | tyler texas newborn photographer

I was out of the studio one day last week to photograph a hospital session for the *G* family.  For those of you who don’t know what a hospital session is, it’s pretty much what the name implies (go figure!).  I actually come to the hospital a day or two after baby is born and document baby’s first few days of life in the hospital.  In fact, it’s very ‘documentary’ in approach.  I prefer mostly black and white images and they are not as “pristine” as you may get in a typical session with me.  I really, really enjoy doing hospital sessions — there is something about going back to basics, just capturing the event as it unfolds that I truly enjoy.  Plus, I always get to hold a brand new baby, just days old, and that’s a HUGE job perk for me!

So, let me introduce baby Graham.  He is such a sweet baby boy, with a little tuft of light brown hair and already loves being held.  I think he looks a little bit like big brother (who I have photographed many times) and I look forward to watching little brother grow up to see if that holds true.  That aspect is yet another fun job perk for me… I love watching “my” kiddos grow!

First, I had to photograph the cute little favors Mom had for visitors, such a cute idea (and they were yummy too.  Not that I ate any):

Baby Graham in the hospital bassinet:

A few shots with Mom & Dad:

A few with just Dad (I love the little hand on face!):

Now a few with Mom, a warning, they are super sweet <sigh>:

Of course it wouldn’t be any kind of newborn session without a few precious details.  New eyelashes and new toes.  Deliciously cute:

Finally,  a shot of  big brother and Mom admiring baby Graham:

Congratulations *G* family, see you soon!

More newborn images to come later this week of a pretty baby girl who’s Mom can be found here .  Stay tuned!

Until next time,
