I was suuuuuper excited and admittedly a tiny bit nervous when Jane asked me to do photos of brand new baby Nathan. It always puts me a little bit more on edge when I am photographing another photographer, but I should have known that I had nothing to worry about. Jane and Ted are so laid back and you can always count on pets to spice up a session. I could have hung out and photographed them all day. I think it would have even been quite enjoyable to photograph them eating the free samples in Costco (we joked that that is about as exciting as they get with a new baby at home). ;-)
We decided to do a Storybook session. Of course this session has a much calmer feel than any of my previous storybook sessions, but I think it perfectly captures the sweet monotony of having a tiny little baby at home. I know from experience that the day to day is all very much the same during that time (snuggling, feeding, changing diapers), but somehow you manage to forget it all anyway! I am so glad that I got to capture a piece of it for Jane and Ted.
Nathan is the cutest little thing. The great thing about photographing him when he was a bit older was that he just looooved gazing adoringly into the camera. That hair, amazing! So I’ll end my blabbering on here and let you admire him for yourself.
