Joshua's newborn session - Interview with mom - Topeka's best newborn photographers

This was an amazing baby session! Joshua is so handsome and cute and his parents are absolutely crazy about him. I loved everything about this session. We were able to get a lot of variety in a short amount of time! I especially love mom's answers!! Here are just some of our favorites!

T.H. Peterson: What did you think when you first saw Joshua? Pearl: Meeting Joshua is indescribable! My heart was so full of joy and I thought he was absolutely perfect! The most beautiful baby I have ever seen!! Everything I had dreamed and prayed about was on my chest, as he made his way to nurse ( he was already sliding looking for food..lol)😀 😀

T.H. P.: How did you come up with his name?

Pearl: Prince and I had been praying about having a baby,so when I conceived, we decided to seek the Lord for a name individually. And yes, when we met to discuss the names we each came up with, we both had the same name..“ Joshua “. And we didn’t even know the gender of the baby at the time!

T.H. P.: Did you have any food cravings or aversions during your pregnancy?

Pearl: Hahaha, I did have food aversions : oats, bananas, oranges and some spicy foods made me extremely nauseous. I soon began to crave watermelon, mango  juice and croissants 😂

T.H. P.: Something you liked about your session with us?

Pearl: I appreciate the patience you exuded during both the maternity shoot and the newborn session. Both were time consuming and definitely went over the allotted time but you showed us a lot of grace . And it was a great idea to have women on the team, I felt better seeing them and I loved that they shared their own birth stories with me. I knew that I wasn’t alone 😀

How to Prepare for a Photo Session - Topeka's Best Family Portrait Photographers

Image
Select outfits that will make for a timeless portrait. Choose practical clothing items, and keep the location and time of year in mind.  Select clothing items and accessories that are not too distracting or that you will have to adjust often during the session (think long necklaces or ruffled tops on a windy day).  Keep in mind the weather, wind speed, and humidity/chance of rain.  If you have littles, bring them some snacks to help give them incentives during the session.  This can help us to get kids to cooperate and make or break a session.  If it is windy, wear your hair up.  Trimming your bangs/hair slightly to keep them out of your eyes is a great idea, too! Use product like mousse, gel, pomade, and hairspray to tame your mane!    Pick shoes that will be easy to walk in at the location of the session.  For example, high heels are not recommended for sunflower shoots, but would look great in an urban/downtown setting.  Bring an extra jacket or cardigan to th
