Ruthie | Minneapolis Newborn and Baby Photographer

Posted on January 15, 2020 by Molly Shields

I suppose the one thing about being really behind on blogging is that I have the opportunity to show some fun “then & now” pictures. I photographed Ruthie as a newborn and I recently got to see her again for her milestone session! Ruthie’s milestone session was one of the first at my new studio in NE Minneapolis, only about a block away from my old studio space. I love the white brick and the beautiful natural light we have in this space! Both she and her brother are as cute as can be and I have loved getting to photograph their family for the last 2+ years since Max was born! Ruthie and Max were so great at the studio and I love what we captured! It’s always a goal to capture at least a few shots of baby wide awake as a newborn and she is as cute as can be in her wide awake shot 🙂

I’m playing a bit of catch up once again on blogging but I couldn’t let this session go, even though it’s from last summer! Sweet Nora is one of my baby planners. I’ve had the pleasure of working with her Mama and Daddy since they were pregnant with her big sister Maya. I’ve photographed countless sessions for them and documented Maya’s first year and now I’m part way through Nora’s! Isn’t this girl just gorgeous? Although I love smiling pictures, there is something so sweet about those big blue eyes and her somber facial expression. She reminds me of a delicate little porcelain doll. We photographed her individual images indoors at my studio in Minneapolis and then went to a park in Edina to capture more candid and playful family images.

So, I know I’m posting out of order, but with the relatively nice weather we’ve been having, I figured what better way to remind people that summer WILL be here before we know it! This session took place last August (I’m a bit behind on blogging so I’m trying to make up for it!!) when beautiful Miss Brooke came back for a milestone session! I’ve been lucky enough to photograph both of these adorable children since they’ve been newborns and I absolutely love their sessions each and every time! I mean, look at their adorable faces!!!! Ben and Brooke are just the cutest kids ever! I love asking a big sibling to kiss their younger sibling because the captures are always adorable and hilarious at the same time…..Check out this blast from the past and remember, it’s never too early to book your summer session! My schedule fills quickly!

The “G” trio | Minneapolis Newborn Photographer

What an adventure for these two new parents as they embark on their parenting journey by becoming Mommy and Daddy to 3 beautiful babies!!!! Triplets Molly, Elliott & Samuel were delivered at 35 weeks gestation and spent a bit of time in the NICU before coming home just short of their due date. I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing these three little sweethearts at their newborn session in my Minneapolis studio this winter. I could have snuggled them all day long. I only saw Molly open her eyes one time and the boys slept through the entire session. Congratulations Jessica and Tom! Your children are the sweetest! Wishing you all the best of luck and a good night sleep hopefully sooner than later 🙂Below from left to right: Molly, Elliott & Samuel.

Mia | Minneapolis Baby Photographer

Mia came back for her milestone session and is just as adorable as she was at her newborn session! She seems to have only gotten more hair, if that’s even possible! If you’d like to see the sneak peek from her newborn session, click HERE. Mia was such a happy girl and it was fun to see her personality come alive at the session. She looks so much like both of her parents depending on her demeanor. She resembles Mama when she has her big open mouthed contagious smile and her Daddy when she’s more reserved and shy. What a doll! Minneapolis Baby Photographer Molly Shields Photography
