Martin’s Manly Man Newborn Session | Blue Springs

A little blog post from this newborn photographer. Rare, I know. Blogging is not my favorite. I like using my camera and working with my clients. I like seeing the results and getting that reaction from parents when they see their images for the first time. Blogging ranks up there with laundry. Right now, I have the blogging equivalent of twelve months of whites and 9 months of darks piled up in my laundry sorting area “aka my bed”. The children in the house have no clean pants.

The Little Guy

Sharing a newborn from December.  Meet Martin. Mom has an Etsy store for her hand-made baby ties, so I was excited when she brought one for Morgan to model. He looks like a happy, little ‘ole man in that last shot, undoubtedly dreaming about milk, cuddles and his adorable nursery that mom has decorated for him.

He had tons of wonderful, dark hair. I had to get a close-up of those sweet little lips.  I tend to get those macro shots at every newborn session.  They have this tiny peach fuzz on their little faces, the delicate lashes, itty-bitty toes and barely existent toenails.

I am of the mind that those are things you want to remember forever. They are imprinted in your memory, how small and beautiful your child is a week after birth, but there really is nothing like an image to look back on when they are nine years old and stand almost to your shoulders.  {sniffle}
