Rachel & Charlie.

Maternity pictures are so beautiful. I never realized or really thought about how beautiful a baby bump is until i had children of my own. My husband's cousin, Rachel and her husband Charlie passed through on their way home last weekend and we had a quick (and warm!)maternity shoot. We are 3 weeks apart, so it may have been comical to see a pregnant photographer photographing another pregnant subject in the June heat, BUT we did it and the portraits turned out beautiful...

Sleepy.

I like to shoot newborns within the first couple weeks of their birth. They're sleepy, flexible, and most of the time can be shuffled around without being woken. Because of sickness and schedules, this little man was 4 weeks before we fit his shoot in, BUT he was an angel. The best sleepy baby ever. His mama said i must be the baby whisperer...probably not...but if i am, oh what a great skill to have! :o) Enjoy this preciousness...
