I’m so thrilled to finally have the time to blog this adorable older newborn session. This little guy was 2.5 months old {adjusted} after arriving 6 weeks early and only 4 lbs! Look how well he’s doing!! He was already so big when he came to me for a newborn session this summer. Understandably, his parents waited to book newborn photos for when he was home from the NICU, healthy, and they had adjusted to life with a new baby. This happens sometimes – either parents are in that new baby fog and booking photos slips their mind, and slips off their ever ending to do list of diaper changes, feeding and 20 minute naps. 😉 Or, parents choose to wait until their baby is a bit older to ensure we get some beautiful awake images and are interacting a bit more. Either way, I’m happy to not only offer older baby sessions, but I also specialize in them. I’ve done so many over the years and they are all so different. Sometimes baby is awake and alert the entire session – totally fine! Sometimes baby is a bit fussy and prefers to be held in their parents arms most of the time – also perfectly fine! And sometimes baby is so cozy and comfy in my studio environment that they fall asleep – that’s always welcome! Baby A did just that. He was a bit fussy, so we gave him a feed and off to sleep he drifted. I took well advantage of his sleepy time. I was careful not to move him around too much but I worked quickly to get as many sleeping images as I could for his lovely family. They were thrilled with the quality and size of their gallery. Here are some of my favourites from our time together.
