082417-002 Oh my word!  I am smitten with this sweet little guy!!  Oscar is such a handsome little man and an absolute joy to photograph.   At the time of his session he was only 8 days old.  So tiny!

082417-007 082417-009 082417-014 082417-017 I love newborn sessions.  Your baby will never be so tiny again and the time flies so quickly.  Each time I hold a newborn, I have a hard time believing my own girls were ever so little.  I am SO thankful to have their newborn portraits to look back on and remember their tiny days.  Plus how can you not get completely lost in all the adorableness that are tiny baby toes, sweet baby cheeks, and all the tiny details that make your little one simply perfect.

082417-052 082417-057 Just a little over 5 years ago, I had the absolute pleasure of photographing Oscar's parents', Liz and Adrian's, wedding.  I was thrilled when they called to schedule their newborn session!  I love my job for so many reasons, but one of my favorite things is being able to see my clients grow and capture beautiful milestones in their lives.  It really doesn't get better than that.  Such an honor! 082417-066 082417-072 Such happy, proud parents and a beautiful family!
