A Mini Session to Remember: Photographing Dr. Sapon, a dentist’s Newborn and His Big Brothers

Capturing precious family moments is always a joy, but when I had the chance to photograph Dr. Sapon’s family from Sapon and Swisher here in Charlottesville, it was truly special. His wife reached out to me to schedule this mini session, and I was honored to capture such beautiful memories of their growing family. Dr. Sapon’s newborn son, accompanied by his two big brothers, made for an unforgettable mini session filled with laughter, love, and the undeniable bond of brotherhood.

Why Mini Sessions Are Perfect for Families with Older Siblings

Newborn sessions with siblings can be a whirlwind of energy, giggles, and tender moments. Mini sessions are ideal for families who want to focus on a few key shots without the time commitment of a full session. With two active big brothers in the mix, we kept the pace lively, ensuring everyone stayed engaged and had fun.

Capturing the Bond Between Brothers

The session began with individual portraits of the newborn. He was calm and serene, bundled snugly in one of my handcrafted props. Then, the real magic happened when his two big brothers joined in. From playful whispers to gentle kisses on their baby brother’s forehead, the genuine affection between these siblings was heartwarming.

The Importance of Location and Preparation

Dr. Sapon’s session took place in my cozy Charlottesville studio, where I ensure every detail—from temperature to lighting—is tailored for newborn comfort. Parents often appreciate the calming environment, and siblings love exploring my collection of props and toys while we transition between shots.

A Family Legacy Captured

As a former NICU nurse turned newborn photographer, I understand how fleeting these early moments are. That’s why I prioritize creating images that families like the Sapons will treasure forever. These photos are more than pictures; they’re heirlooms that celebrate the beginning of a beautiful sibling relationship.
