Many of you know that I am originally from Sweden. This past month I have been a slow blogger because I have been busy traveling in Europe and have not had as much internet time as I normally do when at home here in Baton Rouge. I will soon share some travel captures from the places we went, Ireland, Sweden and southern France and the UK were just part of our stops this time around.So with that, I thought today was a good time to share about another lovely Swedish family living here in the greater Baton Rouge area. Meet one of my newest baby plan members, little A and his family!

I have had the pleasure to work with little A and his family now for the past couple of months. When his mom contacted me for her maternity session it was a true joy to find out that she was also Swedish just like me. We have had lot’s of fun during both the maternity and newborn session catching up on our Swedish and even some “Swenglish” when we can’t remember the correct words in Swedish.

Here are just a few of the beautiful captures I got of the most adorable and cutest little Swede and his family (this esp since my own boys are not as little any more and can no longer claim that title lol) in South Louisiana!

If you are expecting a new little one and would like some beautiful and timeless captures of your new little baby, contact me ( Anna-Karin) to set up a time for your session. The best time to photograph your new baby is in the first two weeks when the baby is still very little and usually sleepy and very cooperative with the typical newborn poses. I tend to fill my schedule about three weeks in advance, so if you want to make sure you have your baby captured professionally during that special and fast fleeting newborn time, plan ahead and contact me to setup your session before your little one has been born. Then we will for sure fit you in during that special time. I may still be able to fit you in, but the flexibility in the available sessions is not guaranteed if your sessions is booked less then three weeks before the session date.

Here is a session I have been wanting to share for a while. This is little A and she is now such a big girl at three years old. I have photographed her since she was 6 months old and it has been so fun to see the changes she has gone through since then.

She was in a great mood and I think really enjoyed our outside session where she could play and pick flowers and have fun, while I captured her during those fun moments.

I am currently booking for last week of July and August and on at this point. I would also like to let you know that due to my summer schedule being a little bit different then during regular year, the fastest way to reach me is by e-mail.

My Future Competition!

Beautiful Blue Eyes!

Meet sweet and beautiful little S. This was from her 8 months session.  She is such a sweet little girl.

Tutu Girl

We had a great session with many joyous captures , even one with a little tear from her eye. Little S was getting tired and I was lucky to capture one with her tear showing. She is such a beautiful little girl and I have been so lucky to have had the chance to photographer her family for the past three years.

Long Lashes

One Little Sad Tear

Little S is a member of my baby plan that captures her at the different stages through our her first year, as was her sister before her. It is so much fun to see the growing stages of their beautiful little family. I love working with all my babyplanner families. Such a true joy that these families have chosen me to capture their babies first year and to have a chance to document the changes they go through.

I really like the playfulness of this next image. Her parents are so playful and brought a balloon along to our session to show how they like to play with S little “fly hair”.

This was sort of a behind the scenes post. G the Highschool student really wanted some with his hair wet towards the end of our session. So here I put his mom to work to help wet him down in order to get the result needed. I loved how G’s Mom was so involved and so very supportive through out the whole experience in working with this family and to get G the images he hoped for when we planned the session.

Shake that water off!

This family really loved them all so they chose the digital collection option so they could have all the files for future reference.
