babies, babies, babies!





Oh it's baby girl season apparently. I got to work with these two beauties and their families in the past couple of weeks. It's a tricky age; they don't sleep as much as they used to, but they're not content being awake and not held by mama or daddy. They can sense mom and her milk nearby and they want nothin', nothin' to do with me. So we improvise! And we get amazing shots of these precious tinies just cuddling and snuggling and cooing and being happy close to mom and dad.

I told the parents today, this is what we do with our babies. This is what we want to remember; these moments where we hold them and touch them. We smell them and sing to them. You won't remember the day you laid them on a beanbag and had some lady come in and snap photos of them. I like to be in the business of making memories. When you look back at your images, you should be able to feel what you felt at that time, on that day. They should remind you how full your heart was and how content your family was. More and more I realize how precious these moments are and how important it is to preserve them.

Enjoy!
