Baby L | Rio Grande Valley newborn photographer | Melissa Rodriguez Photography

I’ve been waiting a long time to photograph Miss L!! Poor baby spent some time in the NICU after she was born, but she is doing great now and was quite the little model for her photo session. She is so beautiful and has the most perfect complexion to complement those gorgeous blue eyes!! Thank you so much to her mommy and daddy for trusting me to capture your sweet baby girl! I hope you enjoy this little peek.

♥ Her eyes look STUNNING in this photo! ♥

Love them little piggys!! :)

Double the anticipation | Rio Grande Valley maternity photographer | Melissa Rodriguez Photography

Believe it or not there are two tiny babies in that cute little baby bump! Thank you so much for trusting me to capture this special time in your lives. Your love for each other and your babies is very much evident in all the photos! I know you two are going to make such great parents. Enjoy the peek!

Five forever | Rio Grande Valley children’s photographer | Melissa Rodriguez Photography

Miss M’s mom always books a photo session on her birthday, which I think is a really special tradition and a wonderful way to celebrate! She says it’s very important for her to capture her daughter just as she is because she will never have her at that moment again. So. so. true. Well, mom…in these photos your baby girl will be five, FOREVER.

She is such a sweetheart and I can’t believe how much more grown up she looks from last year. She is such a blast to photograph and is just gorgeous!

Hope you enjoy your peek! :)

Baby N | Rio Grande Valley newborn photographer | Melissa Rodriguez Photography

Isn’t he adorable?! He was such a calm baby…so content and peaceful. It took him a while to drift to sleep, but once he did he was the perfect model! I know his mommy and daddy are SO in love with him. It’s easy to see why. I hope you cherish these images of your baby boy. I hope you can look back on them years from now and remember how tiny he once was, how he scrunched his forehead and brows together (which is so stinkin’ cute) and how he fit so snugly in your arms. Hope you enjoy your peek! And, I hope they were well worth the wait daddy. ;)

My favorite nephew | Rio Grande Valley baby photographer | Melissa Rodriguez Photography

I can’t believe how fast my nephew Baby K is growing!! It seemed like such a short time ago I took his newborn photos! He is such a happy baby and has the perfect little smile! Mom brought along his monkey and he loved playing with it!

H family | Rio Grande Valley family photographer | Melissa Rodriguez Photography

I’m so happy we finally got together so Mrs. H could make use of her Mother’s Day gift of a family photo session! I had such a great time photographing you all! The beautiful, sunny day was the perfect backdrop for this gorgeous family.

This first image just makes me so happy! It really portrays what a great relationship these grandparents have with their grandchildren. You can almost feel the warmth of the field at sunset.

Thank you so much for trusting me to capture these moments with your sweet family! Enjoy your peek!


Their “other” babies! :)
