There are a…read morecouple of options in the Hampton Roads area but Summer is truly gifted when it comes to newborn photography. From start to finish, the experience was seamless. Summer is extremely attentive and responsive. She knew EXACTLY what I was looking for with little/no guidance/help from me. Her studio is amazing and equipped with clothing and props to meet your needs. A mom herself, she knew exactly what to do to calm the baby when he got fussy. When it came time to review our photos, I was in tears. I couldn't believe what she was able to accomplish with our little one. She made the decision of selecting a photo extremely difficult. So much variety and every photo is flawless! If you're on the fence about whether or not newborn photos are worth it - I'll tell you that I'll cherish these photos forever. The newborn phase is a blur to begin with with the lack of sleep, constant feeds, and crying - I can't wait to look back on these photos and fondly remember the good things - newborn snuggles, tiny toes, and peaceful naps.
