I think little Mr. W has a pretty good chance at being an athlete when he gets a little older. His dad brought some sports gear that we were able to use in some pictures and dad’s eyes seem to light up when talking about blowing up a picture of his baby boy in a picture with a sporty prop.
He was really good once we got him to sleep and let us move him several times without a flinch.
Isn’t he a cute little helmet ornament?!
Miss A was a little sweetie:) She had the longest, darkest most perfect eyelashes. I see long eyelashes quite a bit but hers showed up so much. She also has the best pouty lip ever. Loved it!!!
I’m so glad that it worked out to do this shoot. Mr. J was a little over the 2-week mark but he did just fine and I had fun getting to know him and his sweet parents.
Such a little charmer, too. Look at the dimples!
to meet Miss P for her newborn pictures. She is the first girl in a while…lots of boys for some reason. She was sweet as can be and modeled lots of different accessories for us once she gave in and slept. Her parents felt bad about the potty accidents but I tried to reassure them that it’s a part of it, happens EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. We laughed about it quite a bit and I think we were all initiated by a little #1 or #2 at some point that day. At least we know everything is in working order in that little body! Hope you enjoy:)
Here’s Kian’s official newborn pictures from his session at 8 days old. In the beginning he wasn’t a fan of posing and being put down but after a little while we either wore him out or he decided it wasn’t worth the fight:)
Isn’t he precious?!!
I’ve loved watching this family grow. I first met them for their oldest son’s newborn pictures and since then I’ve gotten to see them for lots of other shoots. And in that time they’ve added a daughter and now another sweet baby boy. The day that we scheduled the shoot happened to be shady, then stormy, then sunny. When it started to rain we looked at the radar and determined that it would pass pretty quickly. So, we took a break, let Mr. E sleep and hung out eating snacks and chatting. It was great!
I think Mr. E may be a little rebel though. His parents are Aggies from Texas A&M University and just take a look at that last picture;)
Sorry guys…..I just had to show you this picture!
Finally, he’s here. He was born earlier today…of all days, April Fool’s:) He’s completely adorable and so sweet. His mom ran a little fever during labor so as a precaution they put him in a nursery where they can monitor for possible infection (that’s why you see all of the extra things hooked up to him). Introducing Kian Tayte…
Here’s Mr. K, aka Mr. Speedy, and his family. He has a brand new baby sister that is absolutely precious. I couldn’t get over how much Miss M looks like a mini version of him. Congrats you guys to your new addition and I’m so glad I got to meet and take pictures of her:)
I was super excited to do this newborn session. One, I’ve done all three kiddos when they were brand new and two, they wanted to do them outdoors at their new home. The great thing about this is they have acreage, wild flowers, wooden fences and a barn. The morning of the shoot it drizzled just a little. I checked the weather again and there was a 30% chance of rain. Well, with 30% I’ve learned that it usually doesn’t rain. And that’s what I get for thinking;)
It stopped and then started a little again. I called mom. The barn area was covered so even if it did rain we were good. I headed over and we did the newborn shoot. But let me tell you…it rained the ENTIRE time…and most of that was torrential rain. Like so bad that I’m pretty sure it helped little Mr. J sleep because it was so loud and constant. There were rain puddles everywhere and big (middle) sister had a blast playing in them. I was bummed that we didn’t get to take advantage of all the great spots at their new place but I’m really glad that we captured Mr. J while he’s still in the newborn phase.
Mom told me how hard it is to get all of the kids in a picture so I thought we’d give it a quick try. We were probably quite a spectacle if anyone were so lucky to see us. We were using cat food to keep one kiddo in place (their new place came with 3 barn cats and one of them was determined to be in a picture. And she succeeded. Because we needed her to eat and keep eating so no one would move). Mom and grandma were singing and being silly and on top of that we were in mud and rain. Forget about photo composition, forget about getting wet and forget about looking ridiculous because we were going to get a picture of the 3 of them!
This was a last minute session that I’m so glad worked out. Mr. L was so sweet and so were his parents. Thanks for letting me capture your adorable new baby boy!
