Little Elijah was such a squishy, perfect little nugget! He had cheeks and rolls for DAYS! His parents chose a classic newborn session without family images, so we just focused on getting shots of 10 day old perfection.
We started with some wrapped/unwrapped blanket shots and transitioned to a few adorable outfit poses. Then we got quite a few prop shots (who doesn’t love a baby in a bowl or basket?!).
Many parents look on with disbelief and comment that I “have so much patience!” I do think being a former preschool teacher as well as being a mom of four helped prepare for the patience needed for newborn photography, ha! I do a lot of shushing, rocking, and soothing, as well as waiting while baby feeds, but the end result is so worth it!
