Oh goodness this little one was so easy to photograph. He was only five days old and just really taking in the world, when he wasn't bundled up and sleepy. He makes me a bit excited for our new arrival coming in May. :)

Sweetness...
Mother...
Whenever I do a newborn shoot I always like to do a newborn/mommy shoot as well. Mother's are pretty important people and there isn't always a lot of thanks passed around for the countless hours a mother puts in for the well being of her family. That little soul relies so much on their mother. It is amazing how the mother instinct kicks in to protect and care for these sweet babies. There is nothing more scary and rewarding then being a mother!
With all that said about a mother, there is nothing that can replace the love of a dad. These two pictures warm my heart, and no they were not staged.
The life of a resident doctor is a busy one! I know this life first hand. They are rarely home, their minds are constantly somewhere else, they need to study, etc. But what warms my heart about this next picture is how often I saw this in my own home. I love to see such a busy dad incorporate their child into their life. It is those small moments that mean so much. I have plenty of these moments tucked away in my memory. I guess you can say it is part of being a mother to notice and appreciate these tender moments.

My little friends...
I finally picked up my camera...it has been awhile and it felt nice. The fall season over the past few years has been a super busy time for me. I always felt I jipped my family out of a lot of Saturday's because I was so busy taking pictures of others August - October. This year it feels nice to not have so much on my plate...however I realized after looking at all the those little faces that were always inside my lens and seeing them through the lens of someone else, I feel a bit empty. I don't always enjoy the stress of a shoot or the time it takes to edit. But I do enjoy the time I get to see these little people (and big). To me a picture isn't about wearing the perfect outfit, having the best props, or posing the perfect way or looking at the camera giving the best smile. It is the little expressions that make up that person that make the picture. If I can capture a part of their personality and not the forced smile I feel I have done my job. My focus is the person. I miss all my little friends in Pennsylvania but I am happy I got to meet a few new ones...
