A Strong and Precious Fighter: Baby Stetson’s Newborn Session
We are absolutely in love with this newborn gallery for baby Stetson! The colors, the details, and the sweet personal touches his family brought along made this session unforgettable.
I’ve had the privilege of photographing Stetson’s mommy and daddy before, so welcoming them back into the studio with their first baby boy was incredibly special. To finally meet their precious miracle was such a gift.
Stetson is a fighter through and through. He surprised everyone by arriving 8 weeks early, and he and his amazing parents spent a long journey in the NICU together. The strength and love this little family showed during that time is nothing short of inspiring. As soon as they made it home, one of their first stops was my Portsmouth, Ohio studio — and I couldn’t be more honored to capture these first memories for them.
One of my favorite things about newborn sessions is when families bring special items. Stetson’s mommy brought along his sweet name blanket and the cutest little name rattle, which we incorporated beautifully into his portraits. They made the photos so personal and meaningful. Since a family member has cows, we also included a little cow-themed set just for him — and it was the perfect way to honor his roots while keeping everything soft, timeless, and precious.
Altogether, this session was a dream. Stetson was calm, strong, and perfect in every way. I loved every moment of capturing these milestones for this family and can’t wait to see them continue to grow together.
