Year One Lifestyle: Baby Boy

I've recently transitioned into a more relaxed "newborn" photography style...

I'm calling it "Year One Lifestyle"...

The first 12 months of a newbie's is full of changes...CONSTANTLY...

I've watched my daughters look through their scrapbooks...many, many, many times...and I found that they get "caught" on the pages that show their little "selves" interacting with other family members...

It wasn't about the cute poses and perfect blankets or wraps...they want to see mommy and daddy in their pictures...they want to see big sisters kissing and holding them...they want to recognize their nursery and special stuffed animals...

If you read recently, my attempt to verbalize my "purpose" in this photography business...you'll SEE that it's more about an image for me...it's about BEing IN moments and capturing relationships...

I was very thankful to meet this family and that they understood and appreciated this new perspective...

I know that we love to pose those little bodies and we did get a couple with special trinkets that were passed down from generations...but my favorites are the ones that put all the "story elements" together to tell his little "narrative" of his first few weeks of life...

His mommy was such a trooper...battling through feeling poorly, because she knew that moments are fleeting...she still looked amazingly beautiful...it's that Mommy Glow!

I think you'll enjoy as well...
