Not sure what to get your sweetie for Valentine’s Day?  Or maybe you’re like me and you just get yourself something because, well, after 10 years of marriage, you know how that goes… 😉

How about a beautiful, hand crafted gift certificate from Shona Reid Photography?  Beautifully made and customized to fit your occasion/wording and pre-wrapped to take the stress right out of it.

I hope to hear from you soon & look forward to working with you!

REMINDER: If you are expecting or have already had your baby, please contact Shona immediately to secure a session.  Newborn sessions are best done within the first 14 days of life before that first big growth spurt. They are more likely to sleep, be curled up and look like a brand spankin’ new babe, so don’t delay!

A good night 🙂 

It’s Christmas Eve and not a creature was stirring, except for this mouse.  I really wanted to give this beautiful Mama-to-be a preview before Christmas as she was drop.dead.gorgeous and oozing with sweetness to boot.  I kid you not!  I almost got a cavity editing these images! 

But seriously, this couple was amazing!  They were up for anything I suggested, enthusiastic, comfortable in front of the camera and so very loving to each other and their baby bump.  I can’t wait to meet him!

Enjoy your sneak peak & have a very Merry Christmas!!

Shona xoxo

What a happy family!!  xox

Awww, sweet baby A.  I’d like to say he made my job easy, but, well, it was one of those days for the ‘lil gaffer.  It DID NOT, however, take away from his adorable baby smell, sweet little features and love that his parents both obviously have for him.  He is a gem, indeed!!  The best part about him being a little out of sorts was that I got to have oodles of cuddle time…why does the newborn phase have to go so fast when you’re just so darn sleep deprived and out of sorts yourself?!

Enjoy your sneak peak you two!  Things will get easier and you’ll get the hang of it!  You’re a great team and it was a pleasure to see you work together!!!

I was so giddy while editing this session.  I honestly could not decide which ones to post, which ones to surprise the parents with and which ones I should tweak this that and the next way!  Baby B was a dream given that he was 2 months old!  Uber adorable and he even slept a little for me – I’m in love!

Thank you for a fun afternoon!

And no, I didn’t do any photoshop voodoo on his eyes!  They really are this stunning!

A long overdue post of this little gaffer that I shall call “Baby M”.  He was so sweet and peaceful at the ripe old age of 3 months.  Hard to photograph kiddies at this age, but he seemed to enjoy it.  We’ll see if he changes his tune when he’s 2!

Happy Tuesday!  🙂

What a dream this little gaffer was…so cute and pudgy at the ripe old age of 5 weeks!  His parents were even cooler…so laid back and relaxed.  Felt like I’d known them for years!!  Enjoy your sneak peak guys!

This little 6 monther NEVER stops smiling…he’s so much fun to play with.  He also had the cutest hat from Peru…an heirloom of sorts 🙂  Thanks for letting me hang out for the afternoon!

This little gaffer was a mere 7 days old when I had the pleasure of photographing his cuteness 🙂  You forget just how little they are when they’re that new!!  Enjoy…
