So…on the side I have recently begun working for a company photographing newborn babies in the hospital. I feel like saying that I’m doing that has a not so great stigma attached to it. I have to admit that I’m enjoying it though and these aren’t the newborn photos that we had as babies. Digital photography has made oh so many things much easier nowadays. I thought I’d share a few here every once in a while. Babies are adorable and I really don’t think I could ask for better photo material to work with. I also feel that I’m learning a lot about babies, which I’m sure is something that I will find to be entirely untrue if I ever have a baby of my own and need to spend more than 10-15 minutes with him or her at a time. :-)

Anywho, here are just a few of my favorites, I will probably share more as time passes.

The open eye babies amaze me. When they’re wide awake and checking everything out and seem to be taking it all in at 24 hours old…crazy.

This baby was perfectly content as long as her dad was holding her. I love how little she looks in his hands.

This one cracks me up. She was actually a very sweet baby, but I definitely feel like she’s giving me a dirty look in this one. :-)

She had big eyes the whole time I was shooting and barely cried at all. So adorable.

Let us hope for lots more happy babies so that I have more to share. :-)
