Milwaukee Baby Photographer | Norah

kfphoto Recent Sessions Blog baby, newborn, Sweet & Simple

Sweet little Norah is the smallest newborn I have photographed to date as a Milwaukee baby photographer. She decided to make an early arrival and come 3 weeks early. So, when they came in for her Sweet & Simple session it was still 2 weeks before her due date! She was such a beautiful little peanut weighing in at under 6 pounds and she was so absolutely perfect and slept the entire session.

She was such a little sweetie pie and one of those babies that being a Milwaukee Baby Photographer I could have photographed all day.

Here is the amazingly sweet review Norah’s mom left on my Facebook page:

“Katie was incredible! She was flexible is moving our session as my daughter arrived almost 3 weeks early and I was in awe watching her work so patiently during the shoot. We love our pictures!”

I am currently offering $35 off all newborn sessions for anyone who books with me before 2/8 as a thank you for voting me “best portrait photography” in the WISN A-list awards.

Katie Fromstein Photography is a Milwaukee Baby Photographer servicing the Milwaukee and surrounding areas.

Vivian | Newborn Photographer

I met Sarah several months ago when she was just barely showing with Vivian. We kept in touch and I did an adorable one year old session for their other daughter Lillyana. Sarah shared with me that at her 18 week ultrasound that she and her husband Clay received potentially devistating news about their sweet baby girl that she was carrying, however they were praying and believing that when she was born what they had seen wouldn’t be there.

Vivian was born on August 23rd, 2014. After she was born tests showed that she had vocal cord paralysis and an MRI of her brain confirmed that she had Chiari 1.5 Malformation. Viv is the definition of a fighter. She had brain and spinal cord surgery when she was just 5 days old and a tracheostomy and permanent feeding tube put in place at 19 days old. To date, she has lived her whole life in the NICU but our prayers are that she will get to go home soon.

Viv has a very rare case so it is so important that her story is told and shared, in hopes of helping her parents finding answers or connect with the right people. Please take a minute to read her story on her Facebook page here or on her go fund me page found here.

I was honored to be able to go to the NICU at Children’s hospital in Milwaukee a couple of weeks ago and snap some newborn pictures of Vivian and her family. I can tell you that Sarah and Clay are real life angels. The love they have for their children and the strength that they have is not of this world.

I made a video of the full session that you can view here:

I love being a newborn photographer and it’s times like these that I am the most thankful. It is nothing short of a blessing to be able to photograph someone’s precious child. I consider it an honor to have been able to meet Vivian and capture these images of her and her amazing family. Please keep them in your prayers and spread Vivian’s story. She is one amazing little girl.

Lily | Milwaukee Area Newborn Photographer

Can I just tell you how much I love working with newborns. Being a Milwaukee area newborn photographer brings me so much happiness and joy. Babies are such blessings and I absolutely love being able to document this time when they are so brand new because I know first hand how quickly these precious ones grow up. I always consider myself so lucky that a family choses me and trusts me to work with their new sweet baby. I think no matter now many times a photograph a newborn it will never get old.

Lily was a pure joy to work with, I could tell like many other babies I have worked with that is going to steal everyone’s heart that meets her.

I am still taking Milwaukee area newborn clients for November through the new year, contact me if you’d like to check on availability or have any questions! For more of my newborn work check out the newborn gallery here!

Winston Newborn Outdoor Session || Germantown Newborn Photographer

I have been wanting to do an outdoor newborn session for awhile now and last week Thursday was a perfect day, so I put out a “model call” and the sweetest momma with a 6 day old baby boy contacted me. I told her my crazy idea and we met about a hour later. I was so thankful that she agreed to my idea but when I met her and saw this handsome, squishy little boy who’s name is WINSTON I left like I won the lottery! Winston has now officially become my favorite boy name by the way.

I am excited to be able to offer clients outdoor photos just like these which were taken outside my new studio in Germantown.

Lottie Newborn Session || Milwaukee Newborn Photographer

I love when I get to meet couples before their baby is born for maternity sessions. It makes it that much more fun when I get to meet their sweet new baby for the first time. This was one of those instances. Meet, beautiful little Lottie!

Lottie’s mom was also such a rockstar and stood on a chair in front of a window for me at 8 months pregnant and then again with a 6 day old so we could achieve this picture. I think it is one of my favorites to date because it shows the miracle of pregnancy and life.
