Zara arrived on Thanksgiving day, so it was only fitting that we went with a Thanksgiving color scheme for her newborn photos! We used a palette of burgundy, mustards, and browns, and added in little pumpkins and touches of fall. And since she arrived so close to Christmas, we also did one cute set with candy canes for the holidays. She couldn’t be any cuter!
