Baby Photos – Carter 8 months

Wednesday, May 31, 2017

Baby Photos – Carter is 8 months old

Catching the milestones during the first year of life for our littles is so much fun. But they just grow too quickly. So to celebrate all those precious milestone moments, we created the Sprout Collection – a package of three sessions capturing 4 months, 7-8 months and 12 months (the 1st Birthday Cake Smash session). We want you to have those memories to cherish forever in fine art images.

I had the absolute please of capturing Carter’s newborn images. And, now, he has returned for the Sprout Collection – and, here are his 8 months baby images. What a happy little man. And, can you believe his hair? He is getting very close to needing his fifth haircut. Yep, I said fifth! Looking so forward to seeing him in 4 months for his 1st birthday cake smash.

Baby Photos

The Sprout Collection

The Sprout Collection captures your little one throughout his or her first year – it’s all about the milestones ~ tummy time, sitting, crawling, standing and maybe even walking – look out!. The collection includes (2) 45-minute sessions to capture 6 months and 12 months. You will receive 25-30 images for the 6 month session and 40+ images for the 12 month session. The 12 month session includes a cake for a 1^st Birthday Cake Smash if you would like to celebrate baby’s 1^st birthday. All images are provided to you via digital transfer and once the 12 month session is complete, you will receive a usb drive complete with both of the sessions. To reserve dates, a deposit of $200 plus tax is due at time of reservation. To reserve your Sprout Collection, please contact me at jacqueline@jacquelinebellefleur.com.

Anna’s 1st Birthday Cake Smash

Anna’s 1st Birthday Cake Smash was a little bohemian and a little Tutu Du Monde! This is one of my favorite smashes. Soft and sweet – just like little Anna. Isn’t she a beautiful little? And, this gorgeous edible lace cake from Kimmy’s Cakes!!! Kimmy and I started working together 7 years ago on these cake smashes and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with this incredibly special moment.

Child Photography in the Cherry Blossoms

Child Photography in the Cherry Blossoms

Nothing like child photography in the cherry blossoms. We celebrated Isabella’s 4th birthday in the Cherry Blossoms at Branch Brook Park at sunset with her BFF, her little dog Mushy. Isabella is such a doll, she truly had me at hello at her newborn session 4 years ago. And, can we talk about the miles of gorgeous curls? They go on for days :). And when you have a beautiful little girl, we cannot leave out her precious little dog. I love the love between these two. I truly feel so blessed and honored to have captured her (and her dog) all these years. The cherry blossoms were in full bloom at Branch Brook Park – it was absolutely breathtaking.

What to wear

I’m not going to lie, this is the hardest part of a session. What to wear? Sessions are all about finding the right clothing and Mom found the perfect Dollcake Vintage dress for the cherry blossoms. I tell all my clients…if you don’t like what you are wearing, you won’t like your photos. Great clothing coordination = great photos. Invest in your clothing. I am so happy to assist my clients with shopping – finding the right vendors for your style – after all, who doesn’t like shopping? I have many resources for clients – including rentals of some of these gorgeous dresses for girls.

Location

I love New Jersey. The landscape is so beautifully diverse. It makes my job such a joy because each session is so unique. If you are interested in a specific landscape, please inquire. I love making a vision a reality. I am endlessly scouting new locations throughout this gorgeous State. From the beach, to urban locations to farm country and parks and flower gardens.

Communion Sessions

Communion Sessions are now open and booking for April, May and June. Sessions at Jacqueline Belle Fleur Photography are portraiture sessions that are all about your little.

What a gorgeous evening for Francesca’s session (and the park all to ourselves – a bonus!). She is such a beauty – it’s been so amazing watching her grow and mature into this beautiful little lady. We even let her hair down at the end of the session so she could spin in her gorgeous dress and have a little more fun.

Please inquire regarding Studio Communion Sessions.

Francesca – First Communion Session

Communion Sessions at Jacqueline Belle Fleur Photography

Communion sessions take place at pre-scouted parks throughout New Jersey depending upon your location. Each session is exclusive just for your child. My communion sessions are 45 minutes and include 15 hi-res images in color. I also include lo-res for the web so you may share on social media. All files are sent via digital transfer. The session is $325 plus tax.

Clients may bring a bouquet, a bible, rosary beads and any other items desired for use in captures. For girls, I do have a faux flower bouquet (white and peach roses) that clients are welcome to use. And, if the location allows, I bring a beautiful beige/gold chair and/or the gold and cream vintage velvet chaise for a few of the captures as well.

I offer a limited number of communion sessions in late April, May and June. In case of inclement weather, I simply work with clients to reschedule for another day.
