Gianella’s Four-Week-Old Newborn Mini Session

Mauve Wraps and Awake Portraits at Four Weeks

Gianella came to the studio for her newborn mini session at four weeks old. Her mom requested mauve tones—one of my favorite palettes—and we used them throughout her wraps, fabrics, and props.

Gianella arrived calm and wide awake, so we began with an eyes-open portrait on soft fabric. Once she was wrapped, she drifted off to sleep, and we photographed her in several floor-level setups. Deeper-toned wood and a seamless backdrop gave her gallery a mix of textures while keeping the colors coordinated.

This session was planned around wrapped portraits, with room to respond to Gianella’s cues. The awake photograph became a lovely addition to her sleeping images.
