{photography} Sir R Newborn Shoot

I think that I see something deeper, more infinite, more eternal than the ocean in the expression of the eyes of a little baby when it wakes in the morning and coos or laughs because it sees the sun shining on its cradle. ~Vincent Van Gogh

Sir R’s session was an interesting session because this sweetheart was the first boy who broke my all-newborn-baby-girl shooting streak last year!  Sir R made us work quite hard for his images because older newborns tend to sleep less and start hitting growth spurts at around three weeks of age where babies cluster feed.  I was fortunate in being able to photograph quickly during those few minutes when Sir R would doze off and am so happy with how his gallery turned out.  Another reason why this session was interesting was because I was challenged as a digital artist in finding the boundary between what I considered art and what my client considered a record of her sweet baby’s life in a particular moment of time.  We came to a good solution in the end and we are so happy with how the images turned out! Welcome to the world Sir R!
