Newborn Baby Photography Session – Mila

It is always my pleasure to travel to Dubai to photograph newborns. Once I arrive to a new location, I always take a look around to choose the best room for natural light. Thankfully here in the UAE we get plenty of sunshine and it isn’t often a problem to find!! This darling baby girl was such a dream to photograph. She slept so soundly for her session and had the most beautiful curly eyelashes! After a little break to feed she had a few more photographs with her gorgeous Mum. These are often some of the most treasured photographs in a newborn session.

I am fortunate to have the help of my husband from Jody Haddow to bring these newborn photographs to life in our new birth announcement videos!! Introducing sweet baby Mila <3

The newborn baby photography birth announcement video can be found near the bottom of the post.

Amanda Haddow Photography will be moving from Al Ain, UAE to Victoria, B.C. Canada in June 2016 ~specializing in newborn photography~

Thinking about booking your newborn baby photography session in Victoria BC? It’s never too early! Newborn baby picture sessions take place within 5-12 days after baby’s birth and my calendar fills up quickly. It is suggested that you book your newborn photographer at the beginning of your second trimester to guarantee room on their calendar around your baby’s estimated due date.  I can’t wait to take your precious baby’s photos!

LEARN | Newborn Workshop with Nicole Smith Photography

I am very fortunate to have been in Vancouver, BC this summer at just the right time to attend Nicole Smith Photography’s Newborn Workshop!! World renown, Nicole brought her stunning warm and moody newborn portraits to life for us, openly sharing her tips and tricks & stunning poses (as well as being the cutest thing to boot in the meantime;)!!

We shared a full day with 4 gorgeous little newborn models watching soothing, posing & wrapping techniques and then taking turns capturing images of these little beauties to share with you!

We were also spoiled rotten by some wonderful vendors whose work you should seriously check out:

Spoiled even further by our own personal trunk show put on by the lovely Shawna who is the talent behind Wild Blossom Props http://www.wildblossomprops.bigcartel.com/. Her handknit items were drool-worthy and I came away with a gorgeous little package of goodies to soon be used in the studio.

Being able to meet with some other photographers back in Canada was so much fun and I look forward to seeing more of these girls upon our return next summer.

Special thanks to our gracious host Cathy Kam who opened up her beautiful studio to us all!!  http://cathykamphotography.com/
