eliott – 8 days old – Portland Newborn Photographer

Eliott came into my studio before he was born so his mom and dad could capture some pregnancy portraits, and I am so thankful he returned just eight days after he was born so we could freeze this precious moment in time.  Glenn and Traci, I know the choices for photographers these days are vast, I am honored that you chose Barefoot Photography.  Thank you!

liam and ella – 5 years old

Watching little ones grow up from tiny newborn bundles to rambunctious and hilarious kiddos is one of the best things about my job!!

“Kimberly is incredible.  She melted our hearts with our twins newborn photos 5 years ago and we have been back at 6 months, 1 year, 3 years and now at 5 years.  I have never met anyone else who is able to capture the essence of our children’s hearts as well as their true personalities.  Kimberly isn’t just about photography she is about capturing true moments in time – I can look at any of the photos we have and it takes me right back to that specific moment in their childhood – she is nostalgia at its finest.”  Ryan and Shay

double the cuteness – two weeks old

One of the things I enjoy most about photographing newborns is seeing their little personalities shining through, even when they are brand new! These two little men were no exception. One kicked back and relaxed…and one a little more opinionated. So precious!

“Our bundles of joy were exactly two weeks old when we went back to the Barefoot studio (in the middle of January!). We have quite a large family and Kimberly so graciously invited all the kids in to take family shots before our newborn session began. These shots turned out amazing. I love them, but what I love even more are the photos of our twin boys. Words can not describe these incredible pictures and we still receive compliments and amazement from friends, family and even strangers! Not only did our session go wonderfully (Moms – you have to do nothing!! It is a great escape from the constant hustle of having a newborn, as Kimberly lets you relax on the couch while she does everything!), but after the session was over Kimberly helped me take the boys out to my car in the freezing cold – barefoot!! She is amazing!”

Peace out.

emelia – 8 days old

Beautiful baby Emelia with her adorably precocious older brother Liam (who was a little leary of the barefoot woman with the camera). What fun! It took some finagling, but I was elated when I captured eye contact from Liam…and a smile…are you kidding me? Emelia slept peacefully and looked ever so cute in her hat and leg warmers. Thank you Andrew and Kristen, I have enjoyed working with your sweet family!

“Our experience at barefoot photography was an amazing one. Kimberly managed to make me feel and look amazing in the maternity mini session despite being at the uncomfortable part of the pregnancy. There was nothing “mini” about the maternity session. She took her time, was super patient with my 2 year old son, worked very hard to incorporate him into our pictures, and had a very welcoming demeanor.”

“At the newborn session, you could tell this is where her passion lies. My mother-in-law and I were watching a portion of the photo shoot from the couch and we were amazed. We were joking that she was the “baby whisperer” because of the way she could move my daughter into the different poses without her even noticing. At this session too, she took her time, let me nurse my daughter when she needed, and let my daughter dictate how the session went. It was such an unforgettable, positive experience. I can’t be more happy with the whole thing.”

audrey – 7 months old

One of my absolute favorite stages to photograph is the “sitter” stage. When little ones have just started sitting up…they’re so happy! Just smiles and drool…so fabulous. I had the pleasure of photographing Audrey when she was brand new and I was so happy to see her again. And her big brother Blake is a joy and he loves his baby sister. Thank you again David and Nicole for opportunity to work with you!

“I have used other professional photographers to take pictures of my children but Kimberly of Barefoot Photography is by far the best. She has a great knack at creating a relaxing environment for expectant mothers, newborns and toddlers, so much so that the pictures don’t seem super staged and really seem to capture a happy family moment. Her photos turn out beautifully and everyone who saw my daughter’s birth announcement was impressed by the stunning pictures. Kimberly is also incredibly professional and responsive. She is an absolute pleasure to work with because she really provides great customer service to go along with her wonderful pictures. I feel lucky to have come across her.”
