✨ When Should You Book Your Newborn Session? ✨ ✨ When Should You Book Your Newborn Session? ✨ The best time for a posed newborn session is within the first 7-21 days after birth. Babies are still super sleepy, naturally curly, and more likely to settle into those squishy, womb-like poses. But let’s be real—life happens! Maybe you didn’t book ahead, or recovery took longer than expected. That’s okay! With patience and a little flexibility, I can create beautiful, traditional newborn portraits up to 8 weeks old. The sweet bug in todays photo was over 5 weeks old for her session and had CHEEKS for days <3 Older newborns may be more alert and less curled up, but we’ll capture sweet moments unique to their stage—gorgeous wide-eyed expressions, wrapped poses, and even some sleepy shots with the right timing. Booked your session yet? If you're expecting, now is the time! Reach out to secure a spot, and we’ll plan for the perfect timing after baby arrives. #charlottesvillenewbornphotographer #cvillephotos #newbornphotographers

We all have things we choose to splurge on. For me We all have things we choose to splurge on. For me, it’s running shoes, race entries, and trips to Disney. Those things bring me joy, and they’re worth every penny. But you know what I don’t really care about? Designer purses, fancy water bottles, specialty coffees . They’re just not my thing, and it’s ok if they are yours. And that’s the point—what we value is personal. Photography is a luxury, but so are the things we all choose to spend our money on. Some people invest in the latest tech, others in daily lattes, and some in capturing the moments that matter most. I know times feel uncertain, and it’s hard to decide where to put your money. But here’s a little reminder: your baby’s first weeks, your family’s milestones, these fleeting moments—you can’t get them back. If preserving those memories is something you value, I’d love to help. So tell me, what’s your splurge? Drop it in the comments! ⬇️ #WhatDoYouValue #MemoriesOverThings #PhotographyIsAnInvestment #charlottesvillephotographer #crozet #cvillemoms #crozetphotographer #charlottesville #crozetmoms #newbornphotography #angelamcnaulphotography

Moms, I know you’re tired. I know you might not Moms, I know you’re tired. I know you might not feel like yourself just yet. But I promise you—you belong in these photos. Your baby will never care about how your hair looked or if you were wearing makeup. They’ll just see you—the person who loved them first, held them close, and made them feel safe. So let me take care of the posing, the angles, the lighting. All you have to do is snuggle in and soak up these moments. Because one day, these photos will be their most treasured keepsake. ❤️ Are you planning to be in your newborn’s session? Tell me in the comments!
Newborns don’t keep. One day, you’re memorizin Newborns don’t keep. One day, you’re memorizing the way their tiny fingers curl around yours, and before you know it, those same hands are grabbing fistfuls of cake on their first birthday. If you’re a first-time parent with an April due date and have never worked with me before, this is your sign. I just opened two discounted spots for a fully styled newborn session—complete with gorgeous props, wraps, and expert posing. Once they’re gone, that’s it. Your baby’s first days deserve more than a blurry phone photo. Let’s create something beautiful. Message me to grab one of these spots! #newbornphotographer #cvillephotographer #charlottesvilleva #charlottesvillenewbornphotographer #crozet #crozetphotographer #crozetnewbornphotographer #cvillemoms
📸 Sleepy Secrets: How We Get Newborns to Snooze 📸 Sleepy Secrets: How We Get Newborns to Snooze During Their Session! Ever wondered how we get those dreamy, snuggly, perfectly posed newborn photos? The secret? A few magic tricks (and a lot of patience!). Here are my top sleepy-time strategies: 🌡 Warm & Cozy – A toasty studio (think womb temperature) keeps baby happy and snoozy. 🤫 White Noise – The soothing hum of a sound machine reminds them of life before birth. 🍼 Full Bellies = Happy Babies – A well-fed baby is a sleepy baby! Snack breaks are always welcome. 🤗 Snug as a Bug – Gentle swaddling works wonders for calming those flailing arms. 💤 Rock, Sway, Repeat – Sometimes, a little cuddle time before posing does the trick. What’s your go-to trick for getting your little one to sleep? Drop your tips below! #crozetnewborns #crozetphotographer #charlottesvillenewbornphotographer #newbornphotography #charlottesvilleva #cvillemoms
They’re only this little once. ✨ Newborn sess They’re only this little once. ✨ Newborn sessions are all about capturing those squishy cheeks, tiny fingers, and the sweetest little details before they grow (way too fast).
