13 Days Old

I had the pleasure of photographing Nicola, a brand-new baby girl for Reshawn and Neal. Reshawn was beautiful in pregnancy and looks equally amazing now.

It is so lovely to watch parents with their new babies. Reshawn and Neal are obviously smitten with their Christmas present, and who wouldn't be?
























Nicola has the coolest nursery. I love it.

Avelina Grace

How beautiful is her name?!

Richard and Trish welcomed me into their home to photograph the newest edition to their family.

I know I said I love 7 month olds in my last post, but newborns - they are so sweet. They are so tiny and precious. I think I just adore children in general, and I have the greatest job ever.

This is my second favourite photo (my favourite is at the bottom of this post).

Big sister Isadora.


I think Avelina has a little sass to spare. You could say sticking out her tongue is reflex, but she looks like she knows what she's doing.

These sweet moments can keep parents going for years.



And my favourite photo. Newborns look like they know things the rest of us have forgotten.

Ms. Makenna

I love babies this age. They are so squishable. Those fat little cheeks look like apples.

Makenna is a delightful baby. Happy, active, trying so hard to crawl. Many of the photos I took have perfectly in-focus faces with blurred out hands, because she does the greatest happy-flappy dance.



This is Makenna's family.

She looks pretty happy about them.

A sweet moment with Dad.

And a very "dad" moment with Dad.



This is Savannah. Is she not lovely?



Who can resist a baby with a stuffed lion on her head?
Merry Christmas Makenna, Savannah and Travis.
