Ahhh.... I got to do a newborn shoot this week. And a FIRSTBORN newborn shoot, no less. There is something about a two people going from a couple to a family of three that never fails to inspire me. Such drama, such extremes, such profound, fierce, brand new love and navigating new territories... and all of this on less sleep than you've ever functioned on in your life. If ever a time warranted photographic documentation, it's now.
Meet Ellison, the sweet, sweet daughter of Josh and Anne.
It never hurts to get a few simple, more traditional shots during a newborn session.
But my favorites tend to be the ones that more accurately illustrate what these first few weeks feel like. The astonishing adoration:
...the natural cradling and comforting of a fledgling momma:
...the exquisite innocence:
...and of course, of course, those tiny brand new parts:
Welcome to your new world, Ellison Grace. You are one loved little girl. (And Josh & Anne, I can't wait to show you the rest! Thank you for inviting me to share a few hours of this beautiful time in your lives!)
