I am an aunt again… it has been a long 20 years since I could say that I was a new aunt! And this little sweetie is my first niece. I am so excited to have a baby in the family and so far it has been so wonderful to watch all the cousins together. My kids are fascinated by her smallness and Garrett only wants to hold her. So sweet. Lydia rubs her head like she was a puppy and Ella admirers her from a comfortable distance. Ella has never been much into holding the babies but she is definitely interested in her tiny fingers and toes.
Last weekend she came to visit me with her mom and dad at the studio. She was a day shy of being 3 weeks old so I wasn’t sure how she would do but she was awesome. She slept right through most of her session with ease and loved being held by her parents. The goal was to get some shots with Dad because Dad is also a photographer. And as we were taking the shots with him he got so emotional, so thankful to be in the images with his first baby girl. It was precious and really hit home with me. As a photographer it is rare that we get to be in the photographs so it is extra special when we are. Especially since they have waited so long to meet this sweet baby girl. Little O seemed so comfortable in her strong Daddy’s hands. So happy and content. I am so honored to be able to capture this moment. So excited for their new family and for the addition of this precious baby in our whole family dynamic.
Life… isn’t it beautiful!
Yes I do believe this is a smile.
