Newborn sessions are my absolute FAVORITE! Of course it’s awesome that I have the opportunity to get my “baby fix.” But the best part is enjoying (and preserving for the new parents) all those details that often get lost in those first few lazy-hazy days. ….those itty-bitty fingers and toes…the squeaks that come with baby yawns and stretches.

It is truly something special to be invited into the home of a new family. There is a calmness that permeates the air–the amount of love in that home is truly palpable. As an outsider, you can see it when the new daddy studies his new baby girl’s face in absolute awe. It’s there when the new mother strokes the silky soft skin of her new daughter. And it’s there when the new parents gaze into each other’s eyes marveling at how they could have possibly created something so perfect.

The Adorable Mr. C

My dear, old friend (old because we’ve known each other 16 years…not old, old) recently gave birth to her third little munchkin! The adorable Mr. C was oh-so-sleepy when I first arrived, but boy-oh-boy does he love the sound of his older sister’s voice!

The itty-bitty-ness of newborns never ceases to amaze me! I could sit and stare at those little fingers and toes for hours on end (and believe me, when my boys were newbies I did just that)!

How could you NOT spend your whole day staring at this face!

The absolutely adorable Baby Mike was such a fabulous model that he is featured several times in my rotating header at the top of my site. Even so, I just have to share one more from his session.

They grow up so fast. Nicolas is now a big man at 2-months old!

Even grumpy babies are adorable.
