I had the pleasure of meeting little Miss Presley in March at a couple weeks of age. I met her proud parents earlier this spring for some maternity pictures (the “before” pictures) so I was very happy to come back for the “after” pictures. I was so surprised by how alert and aware sweet Presley was for a newborn! What a good baby she was to photograph – lots of eye contact, some great expressions, and she didn’t complain once!

and hello again!
This next one wasn’t an ideal photo but I just love the look that Presley is giving her mom. It’s that sweet “I recognize you!” look of adoration and it’s just beautiful!

love that look.
I love photographing newborns. For other sessions, I try to stay within a one-hour time span, but with newborns, it could drag out a bit longer. I just love to take time to hear new parents talk about their baby’s personality quirks, sleeping habits, and all the changes that are occuring in their lives. For a single, childless woman, it’s fascinating to me to hear about the adjustments that a new mom goes through – and it astounds me how they handle it all. Lucky for me, I’ve got a lot of pregnant friends and clients so there’s no shortage of these conversations!
