Can I share my son's newborn photos?

So cute! Love the squishy cheeks and lips! I love a few of the pics where he appears to be in deep thought! Btw he looks exactly like you!

What a gorgeous family

As a newborn photog, I totally agree! I wish I could have had it done with my girls!

I had heard horror stories, so I totally hired my friend who's work I love and respect. I'm sorry mama It took us forever to get him to sleep for me.

It is a composite shot:


You do have to take the innards out so that baby will fit. I also have a small blanket I knit that I put in there so it was soft and not cold for him. Mine wasn't worried, especially with the short amount of time that they are actually in the helmet and with the blanket, he's not actually touching anything. I have done this shot several times before with other babies.

I adore these pics. I have to admit that once I realized your avi changed I had to hunt them down and get a look at mr. handsome. I love your photos, your very talented!

So Cute! And very talented--too bad you're in NC and I'm in OH--and I don't have a little tiny newborn anymore
