We had the honor of photographing tiny man Joseph when he was 10 days old.  We did this session in early December, and his family has been oh so patient waiting for these.  :)

He was such a sweetie.  I have NEVER seen a baby that was so attentive at this age.  He knew every step we took and could follow us with his eyes everywhere, but he stayed quiet.  In fact, the only time he made much noise at all was when he wasn’t swaddled up.  He loved to be warm and cozy.

Check out that black mohawk! I told his parents he is SOOO punk rock!  ;)

Here is the happy Mama and Daddy, otherwise known as Christine and John.

The abundant natural light was a beautiful welcome on a cold winter day.

Love this sweet moment.

:)

Yes, 10 days old….although he looks much older!  See what I mean about him really noticing us?  Wow.

Christine, your smile is GORGEOUS!

Then we had to get their first 2 babies, and go out for a mini-walk.

How cute is Mama Christine in her get-up?!  I just adore babies in a sling.  Precious and snugly.

All three babies.  :)

I just adore doing newborn sessions.  Not only for the obvious reason (they are mushy balls of sweet sugar you could just eat up)…but also the honor of being able to witness the birth of a family.  Wether it is a first child, or an additional child, a new family is reborn as each one comes  into this world.  I can’t think of many things that are more magical in life.   I think having photos done in those first few early days is such an important thing….to capture this new glowing love between each person.

Stephanie and Chris welcomed baby Sophie into this world last month, and they couldn’t possibly be more happy.

she is a sweetie…. rarely cries…..

and she completely lights up their life.

LOOK AT THAT FACE!  :)

I love this moment.

little baby skin  :)

Stephanie and Chris, thank you for having us into your home to capture your sweet little Sophie!  :)  We can’t wait to watch her grow!
