Clara Rose Newborn Session by Debby Ditta Photography of Tomball Texas

Introducing newborn baby girl Clara Rose. With a name like Rose, I wanted to incorporate pastel floral tones in blush, cream, a little bit of red (she is a December/ Christmas Season baby so red is her color), and a wee bit of yellow into her newborn session. She is the fifth baby in the family but still loved so much just like the first baby was. Her older siblings were so well behaved and gentle with her. They were also such outstanding listeners and a pleasure to have in the studio.

Before every Boutique Newborn Session, I gather from my collection of props, backdrops, prop clothes, wraps and headbands together to plan the session. I've already consulted with the Mother on the style and colors she likes and has in the home. When the parents arrive we then go over everything I have pre-planned and together with their style ideas and mine combined, we create the flow of the session. With my background in studio art and photography... this is my happy place planning for each new baby and the session.

Another part of being a newborn photographer that makes it such a dream job for me, is the antique and prop hunting. The collection I have is from over 15 years of finding perfect pieces that a baby would look sweet in. There are many trips with my sister to Canton weekend and Tomball antique shops with my husband behind each piece.

Congratulations to the T family on your newest blessing! Thank you for having me as your newborn photographer.

Matt and Sydney's Engagement Session by Tomball, TX Photographer Debby Ditta Photography

Matt and Sydney will be tying the knot in March. Even though I no longer photograph weddings, I jump at the opportunity to photograph an engagement session. The Cinderella and Snow White inside of me loves the romance of a newly engaged couple. I will be so happy to be a guest at their wedding in a couple months.

I've known Sydney since she was just a girl. She has always been a kind and generous sweetheart like she is today. I married into her big Italian family when I married my sweetheart Luke. So, Sydney and I are cousins.

For the session, Matt and Sydney wanted a country and rustic feel for their style. We started the session in Tomball where there is an urban feeling of ivy covered brick walls and rusty metal buildings. Towards sunset, we finished the session at the grassy field for the country feeling.

Matt and Sydney, Congratulations on your new adventure of marriage. I am looking forward to being your lifetime photographer and seeing you again for a session...when you have babies one day (no rush... even though I secretly want those babies to hurry!)

Flynn Newborn Studio Session by Debby Ditta Photography, Tomball Texas Photographer

Meet little newborn baby boy Flynn. He's a Fall Season baby born right in the middle of Christmas family photography season. Editing extra family sessions kept me from blogging as much as I would have liked this year. Getting out the Christmas Family cards for clients is a big priority! Flynn's final gallery was so beautiful! The colors of gray (or grey if you are artsy), pecan, cream, and dark blue all complement his peachy skin tone so perfectly.

His parents found my business through a friend of theirs whom is another newborn baby client of mine. I love referrals because they are such a complement to my work and very much appreciated. It is also a way to find quality lifetime clients that come back to me as their baby and family grows.

Flynn is the first baby born in the family. He is so loved already. Congratulations to T and H on your newest adventure... parenthood. The best adventure in life.

Immediate Family or parent photography is included in every Boutique Newborn and Baby Bee (one year package) Newborn Session. I encourage parents to be included in the session. When baby is grown, he or she will want to see themself as a baby with their parents. This phase in life is fleeting and so quickly passes. Flynn will one day be as tall as his Daddy, but right now, he can sleep across his Father's chest. He can be cuddled by his Mother all cozy by her face. I know that Mothers do not feel their absolute best or most prettiest after delivering a baby... I understand... I have three babies of my own and photographed their newborn session alone... a hot hormonal mess... but I did it. For new mothers, I promise to make you feel most comfortable in the studio where you can rest after the parent part of the session. I photograph new Moms at angles that complement women. Please don't miss out on parent images just because you are not bikini-ready. There is something so beautiful about a new mother.

Don't let that grumpy cat face fool you... he's really a happy and sweet baby. You can see in the collage below all the five faces he made in about 10 seconds of eachother.

Designing the new studio was an experience that made my heart sing. Selecting the floors was not a tough decision because I knew exactly what I wanted. Rustic, chippy, antique, painted barnwood style that would be used as a backdrop for baby boys and girls. I'm thinking of bringing this wood into my bedroom when we take out the carpet one day.

One of the newest and most used prop is the antique wooden crate I purchased from Magnolia Market in Waco. We made the trip as a little family vacation a couple weeks before the session and we fell in love with the town of Waco. There is so much more to it than the Fixer Upper show. There's a fun zoo, Mammoth Museum, Dr. Pepper Museum, a really cool waterpark called Hawaiian Falls, and so many one of a kind restaurants that all we could talk about was Waco this and that for a long time after we got home.

Flynn is a tiny baby and sure does have a lot of little rolls to grow into.
