April 2026 Contest Winners

Bella Baby is proud to present our contest winners for April 2026. We saw some truly exceptional entries this month, making our final decision even more challenging. In the end, these four images stood out from the rest and we are excited to wish these photographers a hearty congratulations on their excellent work! We look forward to sharing more moments like these next month.

“Dad initially declined photos that morning while mom was in the bathroom but mom wasn’t having that. She immediately called me back and I’m so glad she did; she was just the sweetest mother and the baby was perfect through the whole session.”

-Laurel Albrecht, 1st Place

“Parents didn’t want to be in photos but I talked them into hand shots at least and it quickly became one of my favorite photos I took. Baby was just perfect and sweet for his first pictures. Family loved the photos and thanked me for including their hands.”

-Veronica Rice, 2nd Place

“Baby girl was born into a family of outdoor enthusiasts, so when I was that Mom had this adorable little goose, I knew I had to get him in photos too. Baby girl didn’t mind at all. I love how the goose brings out her chunky cheeks!”

-Maddie Dibley, Honorable Mention

We are truly inspired by the talent our photographers continue to bring to their hospital shifts and the contest every month. Precious moments like these are once-in-a-lifetime and we are honored to document each baby’s story from the very beginning.
