I was really excited about this session, because it had been a while since I photographed a bouncing baby boy. Lately, my little clients have all been girls, so this was a nice change. With any newborn session no matter how many days young, you never know what you are going to get. These little humans are so unpredictable no matter how small. His mother Charmi was a little worried because he was already over two weeks old, but Vinok was the sweetest little baby and a dream to work with. I absolutely adored him and would have totally snuck him into my camera bag and brought him home for Inaya, but I don't think Charmi & Kathan would have been too happy about that.
With every Newborn session I think its important to capture the baby with something memorable so as they grow there is this item you own that you can compare them to. Some people use keepsake outfits, stuffed animals, but my personal favorite is using the parents wedding bands. For years to come this photo will always be symbolic and holds such a strong personal meaning for the parents and the child as well.
We also used Charmi's basket that she received as a gift from her baby shower.
This is another awesome idea, because as he continues to grow they can take photos of him perhaps sitting in it and one day show him that he once fit in this little tiny basket.
What made me laugh about Vinko is that he loved to keep his little hangs right next to his face. No matter what I did, that's where they would end up. I asked Charmi if during her ultrasounds if his hands and arms were like this and she confirmed my suspicions. Its such an adorable little trait of his.
Vinok rocked his session. He allowed me to change his clothes and move him around and just went with the flow. The only downside is that he did not want anything to do with putting him on his belly or trying to do a froggy pose. He wasn't having it, but still didn't cry, he just gently showed me that he was running the show and put himself in the cutest positions, though, of course, with his hands and arms right next to his face.
This bear photos is one of my absolute favorites!
Little details are so important and ones that we sometimes forget to get.
Just look at all that beautiful hair!
These little babies grow so fast and change every day. I love capturing the tiny details!
Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little toes!
Could not post photos of Vinko without including his awesome parents.
They are head over heels in love with their beautiful son. Even awake he is one amazing Baby and so alert. One of my favorite moments was just watching Kathan feed him and just stare at him in admiration. This is such a sweet little family and I wish them a lifetime of happiness together watching their son grow.
Gorgeous new Mommy with her Beautiful Baby Boy!
