Dreamy Newborn Photoshoot in San Diego – Aiden’s First Portrait Session

Welcoming a newborn into the world is one of life’s greatest joys, and Aiden’s session was nothing short of magical. With a variety of carefully designed setups, soft textures, and cozy colors, we captured timeless images that reflect the innocence and wonder of these first weeks of life.

Each setup was styled to highlight Aiden’s sweet personality while creating unique themes that parents can treasure forever.

🌙 Moon & Stars Setup

One of the highlights of Aiden’s session was the dreamy moon prop paired with tiny stars. Wrapped snugly in soft blue and wearing the sweetest little nightcap, he looked like he was floating among the stars. This theme is always a favorite for parents who love a whimsical, storybook vibe.

🪵 Rustic Wooden Bowl with Blocks

We also captured Aiden in a rustic round wooden bowl on a vintage-style floor. Surrounded by soft textures, the simple setup allowed his bright little eyes to shine. To make it personal, we added wooden blocks spelling out his name—Aiden—a beautiful detail that makes the session extra special.

🌿 Earthy Wagon & Greenery Arch

To bring in more nature-inspired tones, we styled Aiden in soft green knits for two unique looks: one with a vintage wagon and another under a leafy greenery arch. These sets created a storybook woodland feel, balancing both rustic and dreamy vibes.
