    I always suggest getting newborn photographs within the first five to ten days after the birth of your child. I know its a hectic moment for parents and probably the last thing you want to do is leave your house but its very important to consider why I take photos within those first ten days of life. Those early days of your newborn’s life are life changing. By scheduling your newborn photography session in those first ten days, I am able to capture all the feelings and emotions that you and your newborn are going through.

    Newborns change a lot within just the first two weeks, more than you realize. Getting your newborn photographs captured as soon as possible ensures that I capture that newborn look and all those special moments. Newborns have a natural curl to them when they’re born and each day, they naturally start to uncurl, taking away that “fresh” look.

    On your session day, I’ll capture photographs of just your newborn and all his/her adorable features including eyes, mouth, nose, feet, hands. As well as images of your newborn with you, your partner and sibling as well.

    Just think about how beautiful and unique a photo of your first child with your second newborn will look hanging on your wall in your living room. It tugs at your heart strings and makes you feel happy no matter how stressful or rough your day was.

    You can’t forget how beautiful and special your first family photograph with your newborn will be. I’ve had Momma’s not want to take photos because they didn’t feel pretty but have seen them cry when they first see the photos of them with their newborn. Each momma was so happy I talked them into doing them because they are beautiful and now they have proof of how in love they were with their newborn that morning.

  • Beautiful Birth Photo Session Gallery in Tampa

    Birthing sessions are still relatively new to the world. I have been photographing hospital births and water births in Tampa, St Petersburg and Clearwater for nearly 3 years. My Birth Gallery of Images will help you in making your decision to hire Ashley Yvonne Photography for your next child’s birth.

    If you think about it, you’ve always had someone documenting the birth of your children. But this time, instead of having your husband, mom or sister take the photos and miss the pure un-interrupted moments of the birth, you’ll have Ashley Yvonne Photography. You can let them focus on you and the moment and allow a professional to get the best photos possible of your big moment.

    I capture still images that you can put into an album and reach for whenever you’d like it. In addition, I capture snippets of video footage that I put into a Movie clip along with your still images, set to music. The Movie Clip sets you back into that beautiful moment so that you remember it forever and you can share it with your Newborn when he/she graduates high school. Be sure to check out some of the Tampa Bay Birthing Videos on my YouTube Channel.

    This birth session is truly documentary, as the moment is happening. Because of that, these images are raw and genuine. You may not see everything I see and its amazing to see your birth from a different view.

    I hope these photos give you the feelings that it gives most of my families from the past.

     

    Happy, grateful, teary eyed emotions.

  • New Mini CRUSH Valentine Images in Westchase

    As your Westchase children photographer, I am so happy that our Mini Crush Valentine Photography Sessions Sold Out and were a huge hit. I had a range of kids from 5 months to 8 years old, boys and girls here in the studio over the two dates in January and February.

    One of the best things I see as a photographer, is when the mother and father come in completely prepared for our session. Each and every child were dressed to the nines. From red and white plaid shirts and bow ties, to Ivory Frilly dresses and headbands to match! Outfits complete the photograph. No matter what I do in the studio, the photography theme would never be complete without the right look.
