I had a great time in Sacramento this week for baby M.’s newborn session.  She was so full of smiles!  Typically, I’m lucky to catch even one smiling picture, but with her session, she was smiling left and right!  Here are three favorites for a little sneak peek…





It was SUCH a treat to travel from Monterey over to Rocklin to photograph newborn twins, Lincoln and Isla!  They could not possibly be any cuter and I had such a fun time at their session (truly, I love photographing newborns!!!).  At just barely a week old, they were super sleepy and the session went amazingly well.  They were born just three days before Christmas, so I had to work the santa hat in there, too… I’ve got a TON of favorites, so here’s a little picture overload for ya!Gotta love a smiley newborn!  Check out the dimple… I’m a total sucker for dimples!!!





I love making New Year’s resolutions!  There’s something about starting fresh on January 1st that makes me feel excited about the upcoming year and all its possibilities.  Let’s face it… I’ve failed miserably at blogging this past year.  By looking at my blog, you’d never know that I did so many fun sessions and weddings in 2011!  I shared quite a bit on my Susanne Ashby Photography Facebook page, and left the blog sorely neglected.  Well, it’s time to start fresh!  Here’s to more pictures in the New Year!

First up are a few more from little T.’s session.  I adore his sweet family and was happy to travel over to Sacramento for his newborn pictures!   Here are my favorites… 





Baby T. {Monterey Newborn Photographer}

Posted on December 2, 2011

I photographed baby T.’s big brother last year (20 months ago, to be exact!) and I was thrilled to hear that my clients were expecting another boy.  You know how I ADORE photographing newborns, so I made a special little trip over to Sacramento this week for T.’s newborn session.  Isn’t he so darling?!  Here’s just a tiny sneak peek… more to come later!





It’s official – I have the BEST job on the planet!  It was like a dream come true to have the opportunity to photograph newborn twins – a boy & a girl!  Aren’t they just as sweet as can be?!  Scroll down to see my favorites…





This is why I LOVE being a newborn photographer!  I have the chance to meet and photograph gorgeous brand new babies almost every week!  Here’s just a little sneak peek of baby Riley.  She was sooooo sweet!  I’ll post more favorites from her session once the birth announcements are sent out.  :)





I traveled over to the bay area for little S.’s session and it was TOTALLY worth the two hour drive to get to photograph this little beauty!  When her mommy brought out a knit bonnet that her own grandmother had made for her when she was a baby… I flipped!  It was so adorable!  And I LOVE it when clients request to use sentimental items in their session.  Here are a bunch of favorites… 





I photographed sweet little Violet almost two months ago… yeah, I’m a little behind on blogging!  But I’m trying to catch up!  If you follow Susanne Ashby Photography on Facebook, you’ll catch more of the sneak peeks:)   She was just as sweet as can be and had such beautiful skin.  I usually spend quite a bit of time in photoshop fixing newborn skin, since they tend to have lots of red spots and dry patches, but Violet had the most perfect, gorgeous skin!  It was easy peasy editing her pictures!  Anyway, on to some of my favorites from her session…
