Monkey Business- Newborn Baby Boy
I LOVE getting that phone call or email from my maternity clients telling me that their little one is finally here! I always look forward to seeing my clients again, and this time fully in love with their new little bundle of joy. It’s such an amazing journey to be able to photograph- the couple in love awaiting their first child, and then weeks later photographing their new family. Sigh..it’s what life’s all about! HERE was their session a few weeks ago!
I often tell newborn clients to pull aside a few knit items (blankets, hats, etc) to use during the session as they really add a lovely texture to photographs. I always bring things along as well, but prefer to use something more personal. When B’s mom pulled out this hat, I’m pretty sure I did a little squeal- I mean SERIOUSLY HOW ADORABLE IS THIS!!!! Gotta love Etsy!
This might be my favorite from the day! 
Sooo cute!
I think B is going to be tall- he has the biggest, sweetest hands and he likes to hold them
I think he looks like his momma here
A sweet one in b+w
A star is born!
I’ve been itching to use this basket- I was milling around Pier One a few weeks ago and came across it. My fellow photogs will understand how some people look at baskets for home use, I look at baskets and think “oooo I wonder if I can fit a baby in that….” which is exactly what I said to the clerk when she asked if I needed help. She looked at me like I was cuckoo which only made me laugh
Thanks C & J for allowing me to photograph this amazing time in your lives!!
