In late March I had the opportunity to present at the Congreso Smile Conference in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and also give 2 full day newborn posing and editing workshops! At the first workshop we had the sweetest baby boys come model for us. They didn’t want to sleep at first, but eventually they gave in and posed beautifully for us.
He didn’t want to sleep as I was getting ready to lay him down onto the posing fabric, so I was talking to him softly and he gave me the sweetest smile! I am so glad this moment was captured, and I hope that it shows how much I truly LOVE working with newborns. Baby boy #2 was SO adorable and had the cutest whispy, light colored hair.
When he didn’t want to sleep anymore, I wrapped him up tight and he went right back into dreamland…..
In the afternoon we spent time learning to edit newborn skin, and also had time for all the students questions regarding business, pricing, marketing, lens choices, working with parents, client communication, selling products, and so much more!
The workshop group from day 1 was awesome!!!!!!
At the 2nd workshop, we had the opportunity to photograph some beautiful girls, and even a set of twins.
The workshop group from day 2 was amazing!!!!!! I just wish I had a better picture of us all, I had to steal this one from my hubby’s cell phone. Thank you friends, it was an honor meeting and teaching you!
The Congreso Smile Conference was very well attended (as you will see in the last picture), and everyone was so sweet, kind and welcoming. I was one of the last presenters at the end of the conference. You probably don’t know this about me, but presenting or public speaking or giving a lecture is one of my favorite things to do! I don’t get nervous at all, because I’m talking about things I truly love and am passionate about, and that I think can help other photographers in their lives and in their businesses.
Q&A time from the audience:
All done! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you to Catalina Avila and Congreso Smile for this wonderful opportunity. I LOVE Argentina, and the photographers there are some of the sweetest and most welcoming people I have ever met. I was sad to leave, but my husband and I made many great memories there that we will cherish forever.

One of the things I adore MOST about my job, is creating custom images that I know my clients will love, and be excited to hang up in their home or nursery, or put on the front of a birth announcement or album. For sweet little Ellie, I knew the minute I saw her room, that I wanted to take this bold, bright, colorful, cheerful picture of her. It will look magical on her wall! I cannot wait to show you more of Ellie’s newborn session. Stay tuned to see more images of Ellie and her beautiful parents! 🙂

I sure LOVE photographing newborns! And children and families as well. 🙂 But newborns will always have a special place in my heart. The sessions, can be long, hot, sometimes challenging, but every image we are able to capture at this sweet age is just magical. I met this handsome little man a few days ago, and I cannot WAIT to show you more of his session! If you are expecting, and would like to get on the schedule for a custom newborn session experience with Caralee Case Photography, please contact me on the website or email me: caraleecase@yahoo.com I would be honored to capture you sweet new bundle of joy in a way that will be fun, unique and truly unforgettable.
