Sweet, Sweet Baby | Austin newborn and family photographer

The very next week I got the email I had been waiting for – my client had her baby, and it was time for our newborn session!!! I was so excited! We decided to do the session as soon as possible, and when little J was a mere 6 days old I showed up at his house with all my equipment in tow.

I have to say, for a first timer with a 6 day old baby, Mom looked great! I was completely jealous that both Mom and Dad seemed to be getting sleep! Having a practically new born myself, I was expecting to come into a home similar to mine (total disaster) but instead I found a clean, organized, lovely home with a just as organized Mom and Dad and I was so pleased.

So Mom, can you give me some pointers? lol!
I was greeted at the door with the star of the show; the man running the house, and by far the most important person in the room. This guy made sure everything was done properly, the care of the baby did not suffer and everyone did as they should. He also managed to get in some lovin’ for himself a time or two…

Anyway, Little J was such a doll. He absolutely did not want to sleep for us. He was by far the most alert newborn I’ve come across.

He was totally content to stare at me and study Mom and Dad and just take it all in. Born on 7/7 and weighing 7 lbs even, this little guy is truly a good luck charm; and sooo very small in his Daddy’s big hands. However, even when he did finally fall asleep, he made sure we knew exactly how he felt about things…Lol! We got him nice and cozy in a fur blanket which he promptly poo’d on, so then we moved him to a black blanket that he blessed twice with the tee! Stinker! hee hee!

Regardless, we managed to get some super sweet sleepy shots. He looks so happy.

I just love the face in this one. We were trying to get creative with the rings (which really didn’t work on the fingers) but the face, the face is what brings me back to this one over and over. Such sweetness!I had so much fun with this family (especially the dog!) and I am so blessed to have been a part of this special day with them. Thank you M family for letting me into your lives. I hope you enjoy the images!

Thanks for looking!
