These two sisters were as cute as can be! I always love it when I meet new little sisters as I really love having so many myself (especially lately as my twin sister’s baby has taken to calling me mama!). I was blown away by miss C’s gorgeous eyes.
And who can resist baby hands?
Mom bought this hat for L and I loved how it looked with the purple (and the darling baby of course)!
I’m working on a “Tips for shooting newborns” post with lots of pictures of this pretty little lady, but I couldn’t hold off from posting at least a few any longer! This is my newest niece, Lyla.
4 days new.
6 days.
9 days.
She looks perfect, right? If only we had known that after about 5 days this little missy would get her nights and days all worked out and liked to stay awake during the day. She was one of my hardest newborns ever.  I took the girl out at sunrise near the end of my trip (below) in hopes that she’d stay asleep for me. Little did we know that this was her happy time! When she started giving me these giant smiles I could hardly believe it. She did this every five minutes like clockwork for about 30 minutes.
Lyla at 10 days.
Oh, and Happy Birthday to my Gramma! Hope you enjoyed these pictures of your 11th great-grandchild!
Jaxson may have been one of the tiniest babies I’ve ever photographed and he was just so perfect to work with! This is the very first picture I took of him. I knew it was going to be a good day :).
I love those little lips!!
What an adorable new family! I love that the colors they’re wearing match his bedroom!
It was really fun to meet this cute little family, and really great that they were just down the road from me! It was a last-minute session right before I went out of town and I’m so glad I squeezed them in!
It took a little while for this little missy to warm up to me (as it always does), but we got the sweetest smiles out of her as long as mom stayed close :). I love those giant blue blue eyes!
The big brother had to wake up from an unplanned nap for the shoot and he wasn’t happy about it! We finally convinced him to come out and play with me and I was so excited to get him on this little tricycle. I think he was pretty happy about it too!
I was so excited to get an email from K’s mama (seen here, isn’t she beautiful?). I walked into their new home for the shoot and got even more excited. The light in this place was amazing! It was perfect, and so is K.
She had the longest, darkest eyelashes I’ve ever seen on a newborn. She’s going to LOVE those when she’s older!
Congratulations on your perfect little girl!
