Every newborn photography portrait session tells its own little story, but there’s something extra special about incorporating personal touches. Lately, I’ve been loving the charm of a baseball-themed newborn session, especially with opening day coming up March 27th, Let's go Mets!
A baby curled up in a soft, worn-out baseball mitt is a quiet reminder of parents' dreams for their children. Maybe it's a love for the game that's been passed down through generations, or maybe it's just a fun way to celebrate those first few days of life. Either way, there's something about the contrast of the gentleness of a baby and the ruggedness of the mitt that just works.
I always discover that the most special newborn pictures are those that are personal. If it's a favorite color scheme, a cherished family tradition, or a favorite sport, bringing that in makes the pictures even more unique.
Newborn photography is just such a brief window of time—those tiny little features change so quickly. Looking back on these times, whether it's a simple, cozy pose or one that's more fun like a baseball theme, it strikes us how tiny they were.
