This is the follow up post to this one, where Ryan and Amy were oh so fabulously celebrating their perfect baby belly. This one was all about celebrating their perfect baby during a newborn photo shoot. When couples choose to purchase my “Bun in (and out of) the Oven” package, I get reeeeeally happy. To get the privilege and the pleasure in joining them during part of the most amazing experience of their lives is absolutely one of the most important things I do.
I get to meet them while pregnant, expecting, some not so sure what is to come, but full of excitement and surprise and love and hope. And then to follow up just a few weeks later to see their entire lives changed for the better … forever. To see with my own eyes the love they never imagined possible just pouring from them into each other…I don’t know what else to say except I love every second.
Thank you Ryan, Amy, and Crosby for allowing me to peek into your love.

Stunningly gorgeous especially that color closeup of the baby and hand. WOW!
oh, I love when your clients purchase that package too! They are my absolute favorite!
that image with them in the mirror simply ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!
oh – these are absolutely beyond magical!
Beautiful……….
Tara, these are amazing. What a lucky family to have a photographer like you to create these amazing treasures. I love them all! Favs: the one using the mirror — mom and baby nose to nose — the first two large ones — and the ones with mom holding baby w/ dad further down the couch. So nicely done! These are really fabulous.
Tara, I adore how you have captured the love of this family. I will never forget that moment when your child is first born and you are overwhelmed with how much you can love another human being. I love thinking about that. Gives me butterflies inside. And THAT is what you have captured for this family. There is so much pressure to capture newborns in a certain way, isn’t there? I happen to love your way. Thanks for sharing.

Damn! This is a seriously gorgeous family. Awesome job, Tara.
TARA! This, THIS session right here is my MOST FAVORITE SESSION of yours EVER! Seriously made me weep with HAPPY! So beautiful (I loved their pregnancy shoot too). I don’t know, something about this session is ultra special.. all of your art is significant, but this work just seems to have a different air to it and I LOVE! Love the mirror shot, and 2nd row from the bottom, right. Oh! And the b&w of dad hushing his little love. And so many others. Just can’t say enough! So much love here <3
Absolutely perfect pictures. I love it!
THIS is beyond words. Simply your best work to date. EVER.
Adorable! Is Crosby a boy or a girl? You never these days as most names are interchangeable.
I have never commented before but I adore your pictures and when I saw the one with the family in the mirror I just HAD to comment and say it’s amazing! LOVE it. I already thought the session was just beautiful and when I saw the mirror picture I actually had to just stop and stare and take it in. Gorgeous.
Oh My Oh My!!! One of the cutest newborns I have EVER seen!!!
Sooooo stinkin’ cute! Makes me want to add another member to my family :-)
soo beautiful. i’m feeling ashamed of myself for trying to pose a baby… this is just so much more real and beautiful :)
ahhhh! you make me cry. you make me want to have another baby so I can get photos like these. :)
Tara, you’ve outdone yourself. Every single image is such a treasure. You’re always amazing, but what you’ve done with this family is magical. LOVE IT!
Wow – just amazing. Beautiful family and your photos are just stunning!
That baby is genetically DESTINED to have fantastic hair.
what a great looking family. Love the pics, as always
Ok girl, I always love your work. Have loved your work for years. But THESE melt my heart so so much. Beautiful.
Gorgeous! These are the best EVER! I want to have babies just so you can photograph them.
CROOOOSBY! what a cuuuute name! sigh. baby fever!
Tara, I love your pictures, thanks for sharing!
Unfortunately I do live in Germany otherwise I would book the “Bun in (and out of) the Oven” right after a positive pregnancy test!
urrrrrrrrrrrrH i am heartbroken you can’t take newborn banjo shots!!
these are amazing :)
congrats to them, what a sweet babe!
So beautiful.
I love how you’ve captured them as a family. It’s so refreshing to see some ‘real’ newborn portraits! :)
i hardly ever comment, but these are so incredible, tara. you just keep blowing me away. what a gorgeous family!
The photos are very beautiful!!!!
You can see feel the love OOZING out of these beautiful people! LOVE them all! Great work (as usual!)
Beautiful!!!! Crosby has the sweetest little face!
I think that sweet boy is more beautiful than we all thought he would be from their last session. He’s a stunning baby! All the pictures are great! I love the one with Dad smiling at Mom & baby near the top. So sweet!
Just need to check and see how old that baby is because there’s no way she just had a baby. She looks awesome! I had my last baby almost 2 years ago and well, things are not as awesome here. :)
i love the way you capture love. you are brilliant, tara!
One of my favorite shoots. thank you (and the family) for sharing.
Also I really appreciated your advice on a local photographer in Utah… Jefra Linn, my Husband and I had a magical few hours together. Thank you for facilitating!
what a gorgeous baby!
UNREAL….that baby has *quite* nice genes. :) this post is just precious and the absolute perfect follow up to the amazing belly session. you are quite perfect miss tara! rock it on out girl.
Just gorgeous.
just noticed…i see the tat on dad’s ring finger-did they get ring tats? if so that just raised the bar of crazy coolness. also, i curious about the post-it by the changing table…advice for new mommie? love note to baby? recipe for a rockstar family? just found it interesting. :)
Oh for precious. They’ll treasure these forever.
