It is with great joy that I share one of my most cherished newborn sessions to date, recently featured on Project Nursery. Capturing the tender moments of baby Sebastian, affectionately known as Bash, was truly a heartwarming experience. When my dear stylist friend Jenny of Forrest & J invited me to her home to photograph their newest family member, I was honored to document such an intimate and beautiful chapter in their lives. The nursery was a stunning blend of beachy boho and surfer vibes, creating a serene and playful backdrop that perfectly reflected their coastal California lifestyle.
A Beachy Boho Nursery Filled with Love and Style
Jenny’s impeccable eye for design shines through every detail in Bash’s nursery. The space effortlessly combines bohemian charm with laid-back surfer culture, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. From the hand-selected Anthropologie Kumo wallpaper to the cozy Amigos De Ahoy rug, each element adds layers of texture and personality. Jenny thoughtfully incorporated meaningful pieces from her gender reveal and baby shower, such as the custom pillows by KV Threadz and the whimsical tiger plush from Anthropologie, giving the room a personal and heartfelt touch.
The crib and dresser, both from Crate and Barrel, blend modern design with functionality, while accents like the West Elm table lamp and Pottery Barn tassel curtains lend a refined yet relaxed feel. Artistic touches, including framed California art by Okay Bear Society and the “High Tides and Beach Baby Vibes” print by Rachel Quarles, celebrate their love for the coast and nature. Details like the wood burned door sign by Rhythmic Babe and the laser cut surfboard from Midnight Confetti perfectly tie the theme together, creating a peaceful sanctuary for baby Bash to grow.
Capturing Precious Moments with Baby Bash
From the moment I arrived, the sweetness of baby Bash and the joy radiating from their family of three filled the room. Photographing those early, tender moments—the gentle yawns, tiny fingers wrapped around a loving hand, and Bash’s peaceful expressions—reminded me why I love what I do. The session was filled with genuine emotion and effortless beauty, perfectly complemented by the thoughtfully styled environment.
One of the most memorable highlights was the surprise visit from Bash’s little cousin, Maverick. His playful presence added an extra dose of cuteness and warmth to the session, and I was delighted to capture a few images of the cousins together. These spontaneous moments create lifelong memories that families treasure forever.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to schedule a newborn photography session?
The ideal time to schedule a newborn session is within the first two weeks after birth. During this period, babies tend to be sleepier and more cooperative, making it easier to capture those peaceful, curled-up poses. However, I am happy to work with families beyond this timeframe to create beautiful and natural images.
What should we expect during a newborn photo shoot?
Newborn sessions are calm, gentle, and paced according to your baby’s needs. I focus on creating a relaxed environment where your little one and family feel comfortable. The session typically includes a variety of shots, from close-ups of tiny details to family portraits and styled nursery images. I also welcome siblings and parents to be part of the session for authentic family moments.
How can we prepare our home or nursery for the session?
Preparing your space can help make the session smooth and enjoyable. Choose a well-lit room with plenty of natural light and tidy up any clutter to create a serene backdrop. Personal touches, such as meaningful decor or favorite toys, add character to the images. If you have a styled nursery like Jenny’s beachy boho space, I will incorporate those beautiful details to tell your family’s unique story.
