what's been keeping me busy

i think in pretty much all of my spare time i've been editing photos. i have done all three of my practice newborn sessions now, which were all so different they are almost hard to compare. they were all fun and hard work (mostly for the moms i decided...lots of nursing, shushing, cuddling). but after doing these sessions i can hands down say i love photographing newborns. they are so sweet, and it is fun to see the baby while they are still so new. i don't have a ton to share yet, so basically all of my pictures look the same. with all three babies we started with the swaddle and that's what i edited first everytime.

beautiful baby hazel. she was definitely my sleepiest baby. although i don't have edited pictures to prove it yet, she let us move her around and stick her in a basket. and i had to share the last picture because right as i was snapping pictures hazel started smiling in her sleep. so cute.







handsome baby landon. he was my first to photograph, so i really didn't know what to expect. he couldn't decide whether he wanted to sleep or not, but held still long enough for me to snap a few pictures of him.





handsome baby aiden. this little guy was pretty much awake the whole time! but no worries because i think pictures with the baby's eyes open is something to remember. they grow up so fast! p.s. the second one was a very, very quick edit, so don't judge.





aren't they all darling babies?

and lastly i got to try my hand at my first maternity shoot. let me first of all say what a trooper this mother was. it was pretty cold outside and it was right after our huge snow storm. to get these pictures she had to take her coat off. brrr. by the way, this is aiden's mommy.





i also have done the sweetest little six month old, but i am not quite done with those pictures yet! hopefully i can post some soon for her mommy to see.
