Things to do this week: share the gorgeous newborn Things to do this week: share the gorgeous newborn video of this sweet family 👆🏻Deliver handful of beautiful galleries. Photograph some milestone sessions + a handful of membership birthday portrait sessions. Count my blessings for each + every one of you. Repeat ✨ #kelsibaileyphotography #kelsibaileynewborns #athomewithkelsibailey
I’ve been tapping ‘reply’ on TONS of emails I’ve been tapping ‘reply’ on TONS of emails this morning because I sent out a February freebie to my email subscribers + it’s causing the most beautiful flurry of self care! My email list is one of the best places to be but in addition to that, I’m pouring tons into my blog this year. Insta is great but connecting OFF of insta is better!! So without further adieu, tap on over to see this family’s sunkissed session that’s live on the blog NOW! Link in stories ☺️ oh, and lovelies? Happy Friday ✨ #kelsibaileyphotography #kelsibaileyfamily
Every year on my birthday, I take a self portrait. Every year on my birthday, I take a self portrait. For some reason it feels taboo to celebrate with portraits of myself but I’ve been doing it for years and I, now more than ever, want my girls to see that I’m worthy of taking up the space in front of my camera lens just like I encourage them to do every year on their birthdays. My kids are home celebrating with me today (thank you snow day!) and they helped me take my photos and they are my favorite yet. If you don’t feel worthy of taking up space in front of a camera lens without your spouse, your kids or the product you’re selling or art you’re creating-2023 is going to be YOUR year. And I’m going to help-stay tuned just to see how worthy you are🤍  #bitsofbaileybliss #kelsibaileyphotography
What does a dream session look like? Well, you’r What does a dream session look like? Well, you’re looking at it 👆🏻 in home newborn session + a cactus themed nursery (yes….complete with THE most beautiful cactus quilt I’ve ever seen) I can’t WAIT to share more goodness from this darling little session ✨ #kelsibaileyphotography #kelsibaileynewborns #athomewithkelsibailey
Snow days as an adult > snow days as a kid?! I say Snow days as an adult > snow days as a kid?! I say Y E S (but I want to hear your thoughts so drop in the comments and let me know whether I’m the only other snow day lover!) I’m so sad to see it go but so happy for the memories we made❄️ #bitsofbaileybliss
There is a story behind every photo. Sure, you mig There is a story behind every photo. Sure, you might fall in love with an image because it looks beautiful but don’t discount the images that FEEL beautiful. And it’s okay if the story behind a certain image is the same every time-I have this little album tucked away in my iPhone of all the times that Harper has held my hand since she started first grade. The photos are blurry, shot with my iPhone and don’t at all scream ‘I AM A PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER’ but it isn’t always about perfectly curated, technically correct images. Every single one of these images of Harper’s tiny hand clasped safely in mine is a favorite to me. I’m granting you permission to reach for your camera and start capturing the things in your life that make you FEEL something. And then post them. Print them. These squares are your legacy. Make them FEEL like you 🤍 #bitsofbaileybliss
