When I showed up to Bradley’s newborn shoot I was greeted by several of his family members, including two (of his many) aunts!  They were such a great help and it was obvious this little one will never lack for love and attention.

This first shot embodies my love affair with gray.  Oh, gray, how I love thee.

Look at that little foot!  I just want to tickle it.

Do you ever think that in 10 years we’ll be saying, “Why on earth did we put those weird hats on naked babies?”?  I still think it’s just too cute to pass up :).

I hope we never stop putting fun hats on cute naked babies!

Isn’t he sweet?  The last 20 or 30 minutes of the session he was out!  I moved him from prop to prop, certain he was going to start squirming, but he kept on sleeping!  What a good boy.

Don’t you love all of S’s hair??  It does make it a little difficult to put in headbands sometimes as you can get funny wisps of hair poking out all over the place!

Her mama is from the Philippines so it was a lot of fun to talk to her about it!  I lived there for a short time several years back and the conversation made me yearn for mangoes and pineapple.  I even left with this amazing little mango desert a friend brought back from the Phils.  It was so tasty!

Thanks for letting me play with your perfect baby for the day! (and thanks for that incredible gumbo too!)

I did Kristen’s maternity pictures and baby Emma’s newborn pictures 3 weeks apart!  I never got the chance to blog her maternity pictures, so here’s one that I really liked.

Introducing Emma!

They had this Christmas hat and ornaments so we put together a little Christmas set-up!  I think it turned out really cute :).

I glanced into their yard and loved this one little shaded corner.  I knew we had to do a shot out there!
