As a newborn and baby photographer, I’m always on the lookout for amazing gift ideas for my clients and friends. I like to find unique items that are made with quality, durability and comfort. I’m always a little sad that my own kids are so grown now and don’t need all of the cute things I find now that were not around when they were babies!  Minky Couture blankets are one of those finds I just have to share with all of you!

Minky Couture  makes the most amazingly soft, and beautiful blankets for babies – and adults too!! Finally something we can all share and love just as much as my littlest babies in the studio. I love the smooth side as much as the ultra soft minky side – and that satin edge brings me back to my favorite blanket when I was little (let’s not talk about how long ago that was!).

This blanket definitely tops the list for baby shower gift ideas, client gifts for photographers or even just treat yourself with one to enjoy on the couch! They have sizes from infant lovie all the way up to adult sizes.

This sweet girl came in to the studio for her 6 month milestone photo session and she loved this minky blanket  as much as I do!

The company has offered all of my clients a 45% off discount code to celebrate Mother’s Day —  DANIELLE45  — You can shop online, or visit their Facebook or Instagram accounts to order!

Sweet little Lou came in for her 6 month milestone session with her twin brother. She was being so adorable and wanted to model for me a bit. This super cute knit outfit is from Zara  and available for all sitter sessions in the studio wardrobe!  Her own newborn session will be blogged soon, but you can see a preview of this adorable duo with their beautiful mom on the main page of my site!  I will also be blogging this sitter session soon – So many more beautiful images to share of these cuties – despite teething trouble and missed nap times.  😉
