Welcome, Baby Phoebe! | Ocean Springs Lifestyle Newborn Photographer

It had been WAY too long since my last at-home lifestyle session, and frankly, also way too long since I had even been in anyone else’s house for any reason, so I was pretty excited to go visit my dear friends the Polens for this newborn session. All the COVID precautions were well worth it for this precious bundle. Isn’t Phoebe beautiful?!

She’ll be the perfect little sis for Lou & Leroy. ;)

Dani and Neil are such wonderful parents; it was such a joy to see how much they adore this sweet babe.

Lou made sure I didn’t miss the fact that her room is pretty awesome, too!

This is why I love at-home sessions. Not only are they comfy and easy, they are always infused with YOUR style!

It was SO HOT, but we ventured outside for a bit…

Phoebe needed a milk break, and Lou kindly assisted me with photography for a bit. ;) (And even took MY picture—what a treat!)

Phoebe only wanted to sleep in Mommy’s arms, and I sure can’t blame her. I loved capturing all these snuggles. What a lucky little girl!

Thank you so much, Polens, for letting me document this precious season in your life. In these weird times, it was a much-needed source of joy, and I am thankful.

I think I’ve gotten the hang of portrait sessions in the time of COVID, so let me know if YOU want to be next! ;)
