On a rainy Sunday, I traveled to a little town in north Oklahoma to snuggle the cutest little dude. At a week and a half old, Baby B was still sleepy and solemn as we took our time taking his pictures.
There’s nothing sweeter than a newborn babe; their tiny toes, their soft skin, and their iconic “baby smell.” Baby B loved to be swaddled, held, and definitely NOT on his tummy. The joy of newborn sessions are none of them are the same. You can have all these poses and ideas but if the newborn doesn’t want it, you improvise.
Every baby is special, but B holds a special place in our hearts because he was sent from heaven by his siblings that didn’t get any time on earth with us. He is God’s redemption and fulfillment in baby form.

Beautiful baby! I love that you were able to capture such wonderful images, and I imagine that it is pretty tough to get newborns into any preconceived poses.
