Ohhh Sweet Baby - Wareham Baby Photographer

It is always a pleasure to have little ones in my studio!  Especially little ones as good as sweet baby Carllee.  She was such a happy girl with big beautiful eyes and an adorable giggle.  Part of the trick to photographing wee ones at their best is timing and patience - the portrait session really goes by their schedule as nap time should be a definite consideration as to when the session is scheduled.

But we did not have to worry about that as Carllee came in bright eyed and eager to have her 4 month old portraits taken. 

Here, she was curious as to what was outside and I love the expression of her mouth!

Baby feet - there's something about a portrait of tiny feet, they are the cutest and so kissable.  The best thing is she posed them so beautifully all by herself! I think images of baby feet allow you to remember your own children and just how quickly they grow up. Those tiny little fingers and toes won't be so little for long!

Pretty baby in a pink tutu and headband makes my heart melt!  

I asked Mom to dress in dark clothes just in case she needed to be a "prop" in the image - this portrait was one of the last ones and I just love the expression on Mom's face along with her gentle hand keeping Carllee from spilling backwards. 

It was a fun morning in the studio and I am always grateful to be given the opportunity of capturing another one and only moment in time in a family's history!  Thank you Carllee for being a perfect 4 month old baby girl - your portraits are so darn adorable!!!

Newborn to six months/Wareham baby photographer

In the blink of an eye you realize how quickly time goes by in the life of a baby with each new day bringing the opportunity to grow and change and learn new things, the simplest of things that we take for granted like sitting up.

This adorable little boy was born into our family way back on September 27, 2011 and I have watched and documented his growth with such amazement and happiness. His name is Callan Barrett and oh does his name carry much weight. You see he is named after 2 grandmothers that lived long before him and meant so much to those that knew and loved them. There was Babs (aka Ellen, aka Nana) on his maternal side - she grew up in a small town in Ireland called Callan, County Kilkenny. She would have been Callan's great, great grandmother and would have adored this boy! And then there was Margaret Barrett on his paternal side who would have been his great grandmother and she would have adored him too! What's in a baby's name, well Callan will definitely have stories to tell!

He was only a few days old when these newborn baby portraits were taken. Curled up on his Momma's chest was one of the only ways he wanted to sleep in those early days. Love those tiny lips, sleepy eyes and curled up toes. How soon you'll change!

I love how he is looking so peaceful wrapped in this cuddly blanket on the bed. He was so little!

At three months, he's perky with personality plus wanting to eat his hand, big smiles, big blue eyes and a dash of red hair! Every time Callan and his big brother Beckett come to visit I try and make sure to capture some photos of the them. Beckett, now 3, doesn't want much to do with that but Callan is easy and will play along! At three months you forget that they are just learning to push themselves up so my trusty assistant (Papa) and I propped him up and placed him in front of the beautiful window light in the studio and captured these fun 3 month baby portrait moments with him. The blanket on the head, silly I know, but goes back to when I was a baby - if you clicked on the Beckett link you saw it there too - guess it's a family tradition! I'm starting to forget how little he was.

Sitting up, trying to eat his toes, giggling, drooling, almost crawling is what 6 month portraits were all about for this baby boy! The red hat is a tradition too as Beckett wore it here - we love those hand-me-downs. I loved the baby chatter too as we played in the studio creating these six month baby portraits.

Callan, you bring us much joy (as does your big brother) and we look forward to many playful one and only moments together captured picture perfectly! (love, nana and papa)
