He’s going to be a charmer: D.C. Newborn Photographer

March 7, 2012

I was so looking forward to this newborn session.  It seems like when I do newborns, they come in a series of all girls or all boys.  Recently I have been doing more girl newborn sessions and I had purchased some new baby boy props from etsy so I got to try them out.  Whenever I go to any of the older cities in Virginia or D.C., I always make sure to bring a softbox with me.  Sometimes you never know when you might need that artificial light and I always like to be prepared for any situation.  Turns out my hunch was right and we needed that extra light.

This little guy was a good as they come.  He barely fussed throughout the entire session and let me pose and play with him.  I also loved that the parents came with their own ideas for the session too.  I appreciate when my clients do some research and have ideas too.  Oftentimes, that collaboration yields beautiful images.  I really enjoyed my time with this family and am happy they are blessed with such a sweet boy.

If you like the images you see here, please leave them some love in the comments box below.  If they get 20 comments, they win a free mini album!

I love that he looks like he is waving in this photo.

    Our dearest Cameron,

    Nana and I think that you look TERRIFIC, w/ or w/o a hat, a tie, or gauze PJ’s. We love you very much and are very proud of your M&D. And if you really want to slip your car seat into that red BMW convertiable,and M&D don’t agree, then call Grandpa Burke!!!

    Love,
    Nana and Grandpa
