Oh what a fun session this was! I’ve known Mom for forever. Really, I started feeling a bit old once I realized how many marathons ago we had met! I have to brag on Mom for a bit: she’s truly the most active person in Pearland. If there’s a run or a bike or a triathlon–she’s doing it! You know you’re into multisport events when you say something like: “I just need to lose enough baby weight to fit back into my wetsuit”. So she can relay an Ironman event. Yes, she’s the bomb!
I got to try out some fabulous new fabrics and hair pretties that I got while raiding a prop destash from the fabulous Aimee Fuller Photography. One of the things I like so much about working with newborn girls is I get to play dress-up. With two boys, dress-up involves more swords and superhero-muscle-costumes than bows and headbands!
So I won’t make you wait any longer: here’s the good stuff!
When Mom came in and Miss E was awake she was worried because she thought we would only be getting sleepy shots. Nope! I truly LOVE seeing these babies’ eyes open!
Sweet, sleepy baby!
I saw these toes and immediately loved them! Mom says they are her Daddy’s toes!
This precious hat was created by a wonderful high school friend: Momma’s Creations
I think she looks like a Victorian doll!
She gave up some sweet, sweet smiles for us during the session!!
Just love those sweet lips!
Again, I just love an awake baby! (quiet, alert wakefulness, especially! lol!)
A crown for the little princess she truly is!
And dreaming of the angels! What a sweetie!
Thanks again, Mom, for coming in and sharing your darling with me!
I think this is my new favorite girlie blanket! Some days I just can’t get enough of PINK!
What a sweet little snug-bug! She was truly my easiest newborn yet! So content to sleep and then have some quiet alert time where we got to see those big gorgeous eyes!
I always like to incorporate sentimental items into the session– a friend had made this little knit hat for this sweet baby girl.
She has miles of eyelashes. So gorgeous! And she was so sweet to model this bonnet for me! I heart it!
Prin-cess. Definitely.
Now I love images like this. . .when Mom and Dad look and say something like: “Oh! She always has her hand up like this!” Or “She was always doing that during the ulatrasounds!”. I love when we capture the babies’ earliest personalities and preferences to remember forever.
Hello, gorgeous.
See those lashes? Thank goodness Daddy is already prepared to deal with suitors!
Sweet, sweet, sweet.
If you’re wondering if I just kept her in this position and put every hair-pretty I own on her then you are wondering correctly! To quote a fabulous newborn photographer: “Sometimes I get a little crazy with the girls”. She was so compliant to just chill out while I got to play dress-up with headbands and hats!
This sweet little Aggie with a handmade chair from her Grandpa.
Beautiful family.
Pretty Mama.
He has ladykiller eyelashes. Oh my goodness!
Can you get enough of this sweetness? Me, either!
I love it when my tiniest models strike their own pose! He got cozy in this position and I just thought it was the sweetest ever!
Smiling for me!
I just love that sweet little hand!
I think this is my favorite newborn image to date. Not sure what it is, but I just love how peaceful and calm this is.
More smiles!
This hat by the incredible
I just love this one. Her expression. New big sister. Not sure of this whole new baby stuff.
Love the connection here!
This was a pretty nice way to start off! Hello world. How are you?
Love those sweet fingers.
Wrap you up like a little egg? Don’t mind if I do!
Sweet little aviator hat.
He was just the absolutely most perfectly squishy little guy.
This hat is too adorable–and one of Mom’s Etsy finds. It was nice to talk about my love of all things Etsy. And Pinterest!!! During the session!
This was a new little hat I got recently from a favorite vendor. I really like this little gnome/elf/pixie style. And if anyone can explain the difference between an elf, gnome, and a pixie I would love to hear it!
This was one of my absolute favorites from the session. Just love how he is so awake and checking it all out.
He’s such a doll. Love!
Here was big sister looking for Elmo in the lens. She was such a trooper for a long session!
What a great big sister! Lots of sweet kisses for little brother!
It was such a treat to work with the whole family as well.
See! More sweet kisses!
Before you ask, no, this is not my rug. It’s the clients’ but I want one!!!
Love these sweet toes together. Really one of my favorite images from the session.
Thanks again for letting me into your home and sharing your family with me! Enjoyed the session tremendously! Merry Christmas!!!
