Working with newborn babies is the ultimate challenge. One of the reasons I love it, is for the challenge really. Newborn babies do not care if I have a schedule, they want what they want, when the want it. There is no bribing them, no talking them into things, if they want to eat, they will let you know. And sweet, darling, Micah let me know. During our first session this super cute boy wanted none of our cozy blankets and soft wraps, he wanted to eat. The entire 3 hours I was there. I can usually wait out a newborn, but sweet Micah wanted to be different lol. After many hours of feeding, and a few clicks of the camera we rescheduled. His wonderful Mamas spent the weekend ironing out his eating needs and by the next week he was a whole new baby. Sleepy, happy, and ready for his time with my camera. While I never want a baby to be unhappy, I was glad to have the extra day with him. He was so good for me, and a darling to capture. 🙂 I loved working with his whole family.
Here are a handful of my favorites…
Erica & Katie thanks for your patience! I adore your sweet baby boy, even if he made us all work for it. 🙂 It was a pleasure to meet you all and capture your family. I wish you all nothing but the best with this little hungry ninja, and hope to see you all again soon as he grows up!
Your whole gallery will be ready soon. For now I would love to offer you a little blog challenge. If you can get 30 people to comment on this post I will throw in a set of brag books on the house. So leave some love for this cute family folks!

My heart swells with joy and gratitude- thanks Emily so much for capturing our little guy. We kinda think he sabotaged the first shoot so you would come back again. 🙂 My mom was moved to tears watching you work with him! Baby magic.
The pics of nephew are breath taking. He is such a cutie pie. Your work is amazing.
