A Newborn Photography Session Filled With Love, Color & Meaning
There is something indescribably special about photographing a rainbow baby—a child welcomed after loss. Their arrival represents healing, hope, and the bright beauty that follows the storm. This sweet little one’s newborn session was bursting with color, symbolism, and the most tender family love.
From the moment her parents walked into my Glen Carbon studio, I could feel the excitement and pride they carried. Their new chapter has begun… and what a beautiful chapter it is.
🌈 A Rainbow Baby Wrapped in Color
To honor her story, we incorporated vibrant, rainbow-colored wraps and accessories. One of my favorite setups was this dreamy scene of bright hand-sorted buttons cascading like a rainbow over the newborn as she peacefully rested.
This image is not only visually stunning—it’s deeply meaningful. Every hue celebrates the emotional journey that brought her here.
The storm was real, but so is the rainbow. ✨
💕 Mommy & Her Miracle
With a soft, flowing dress painted in rainbow tones, Mama held her newborn close, radiating warmth and protection. Her gentle expression says everything—joy, gratitude, and awe.
This moment feels sacred. I always tell parents: you will never regret getting in the photo.
👨👩👧 A Family Complete
Nothing shines brighter than the love in a new family’s first portrait.
Wrapped in clean, neutral tones, baby girl snuggled sweetly in her parents’ hands—showing how treasured and protected she is.
These images will forever remind them of how tiny she once was and how deeply she was loved from the start.
Why Photographing Rainbow Babies Means So Much
Rainbow babies often hold an emotional weight for families, and it is truly an honor to help them remember this new beginning. Each detail—from the wraps to the colors—was planned with purpose and love.
I’m grateful these parents trusted me to document their daughter’s first days and give them beautiful pieces of art that honor her story.
