Newborn Photographers -- Recommendations?

[Anonymous]

My baby's due in exactly one month, and we'd like to get newborn pictures once he's born. Does anyone have recommendations for photographers who do great work with newborns?

Thanks!

Jennifer Hughes (www.jenniferhughes.com) takes amazing photos of newborns and children of all ages. I used her for my wedding, and several friends since then have used her for family and newborn portraits. She has a rare gift and is a really nice, easygoing person. She's located in Baltimore, but travels to DC for shoots at no extra charge. I even have a friend in NYC who couldn't find anyone as talented as Jennifer in Manhattan, so she paid to have her go north for a shoot. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Liz Vance (www.ohbabyphoto.com) takes amazing photos, but is not the most organized, so you have to be willing to follow up a few times

Rodney Bailey is the best - he is known for weddings but also does babies/children. Also he is just a lovely person to work with. I used him for my wedding but absolutely plan to have him take photos of my baby too!! http://www.rodneybailey.com/

She's incredible with newborn photos. She might already be booked for the fall though.

Hands down my two faves are Nancy de Pastino of Little Prints http://www.littleprintsphoto.com and Joseph Allen http://www.dcfinephoto.com/home.htm

Can't remember the photographer's name, but her company is Eikon Photo - www.eikonphoto.com. She did pictures of my son at 5 mos. and they were amazing. She's in Capitol Hill. Highly recommend.
