keller | 3 weeks

Rebecca was a VERY pregnant bridesmaid in a wedding I attended in October. I was too chicken to give my card directly to her, so I gave it to a friend and eventually my name somehow made it to Rebecca. I pussy-footed around a bit- but I still got exactly what I wanted. ;) By the time we were able to fit Keller’s session in he was 3 weeks old and NOT very sleepy. I’ve had two or three newborn sessions that I’ve knocked out in 2 hours- most take between 3 and 4. Keller and I kicked it together for nearly 5 and half hours. Thankfully, Rebecca was incredibly understanding and patient while we waiting for him to get comfortable and fall asleep. Got to love it when a client will do anything to get the shot.

I especially love the connection in the right photo.

My absolute favorite thing about newborn sessions is catching their “smiles”. I think his little grin completely makes the left picture. And the same with the exhausted baby face in the right one.

Bringing it in tight. I don’t do it often, but I should.

I don’t know the whole story, but I believe Keller is named after a dear friend of his parents who passed way. The tattoo is connected with the friend, so Rebecca and Jeremy requested a picture incorporating the two.

Itty bitty baby parts.

Isn’t Becca beautiful?

The last shots that we waited FOREVER for. He did not want to be placed in the basket, but finally succumbed to la-la land and we got our way.

Thank you Jeremy and Becca for being so patient! I hope you agree that it was totally worth it.
