Session Spotlight: Blessed with a little girl!

Apr 22, 2019 | Latest Trends, Session Spotlight | 1 comment

The story behind this session…

I stopped offering family sessions last year and it was a really hard decision because there were so many families that I just love and being able to see their children grow every year was such a pleasure to see! But my heart really wasn’t in it and I didn’t think it was fair to my favorite clients to have a photographer that wasn’t 100% all in for their family session.

So imagine my surprise when one of the families who I’ve been photographing since 2015 sent an email asking if they could schedule a newborn session! They already had 2 little boys so I knew this session was extra special to them when they welcomed a girl into their family.

I pulled out the pink, grabbed everything girly and started stying their session and it really turned out to be one of my favorites. Not only did I get to see my favorite family, but after a slew of all boy sessions, I finally got to change things up and throw in some frilly wraps and bonnets in a session! 🙂


Session by: Dana Menendez Photography

I started specializing in Maternity and Newborn Portraits right around the time my son was born.

I was obsessed with documenting every moment of his life! What started out as a hobby as turned into a passion and I absolutely love making memories for other families.

Every year I take numerous workshops, whether online or in-person to keep up with the trends and to make sure all poses are done safely.

I am certified in Infant CPR and fully licensed and insured.

    Just beautiful!!!! I stopped offering Senior portraits a few years ago for the same reason and this year have referred most of my families to another photographer intern. I just do not have the time anymore—and am probably stopping doing my family and holiday mini-sessions all together. I am just focusing mainly on maternity and newborn/babies, and I do a few styled children’s sessions. You have to find what you love and also protect your time. 🙂
