Ella – 11 Days New

Ella…I have alway loved that name.  So simple…yet so elegant… Meet little 11-day-old Ella!  She was a good sleeper!!  Ella let us do almost anything we wanted 🙂  Did I say “almost”?  Oops…she let us do anything we wanted!

So sleepy. Ella curled up perfectly for pictures 🙂  This prop was made by a fellow photographer out of London Kim from KimmikPhotography.  Wish I could make this stuff!  Ella fit into it like a glove!

Another one of Kim’s props…the hanging pod…I havn’t tried it on my tree branch yet and it worked great!

Just one for now…

Oh my goodness it’s been crazy around here!  With the new move we are desperately trying to get things done around here and trying to get all my sessions edited (and still working paramedic full time…CRAZY!!)…or should I say blessed!  In the mean time, Katie, I apologize for the delay in your preview from your wonderful maternity session the other day and was able to edit just one for now 🙂  I promise to get more up but here is one to hold you over!  (Mike…thanks for participating – your a trooper!)

13 Days and Lovin Life…

This little man is only 13 days old and is just full of life! He didn’t want to sleep and when he did sleep … he woke very easily and I think it’s just because he loves being here and doesn’t want to miss a thing!

Little Eskimo!  How cute is this vest and boots!!!

Dont let this picture fool you…I think he blinked!  Hee hee hee…little angel

LOL! I laughed when I saw this one..almost forgot I took it!  He wanted nothing to do with removing his little hand away from his face…looks like he is hiding or saying “ENOUGH ALREADY!!”…LOL!

6 week old miracle!

This little girl is so loved and SO wanted!  10 years after trying and a lot of heart ache…mom and dad were thrilled and over joyed to find out they were finally going to have their chance at parenthood…and they are just SO in love with this little girl! Every coo, every squeek, every smile…the room lit up like  a Christmas tree!  I could feel the love, and to be honest, my face hurt by the time this session was over just with the smiling!  I feel truly blessed to have been able to capture this moment for this family.  Baby Rachael, is 6 weeks old…but just so tiny and perfect she curled up just like she was brand spankin new!

Isn’t she tiny?  Such a little doll…I could have cuddled her all day!

An actual smile!  Not a gas smile…an actual smile!  Awww 🙂

9 days of pure sweetness!

What a pleasure it was to photograph this tiny, but just beautiful little boy!  This is Hudson who came to see me at 9 days new!  And he was a little sleeper!  Such tiny features, and the purest of skin…I could have kept him!

Soooo tiny!  Fit onto dads arm perfectly.  Another hat from Etsy.  Love that site!!! www.etsy.com

I so enjoy capturing this pose! Something about them just hanging there and when you get to see their tiny little foot like that…mmmm just makes me all warm and fuzzy 🙂

Heaven…

Have you ever heard the name “Heaven”?  …Okay – now spell it backwards!  Nevaeh…(pronounced Na-vay-a)…well the first I ever heard of it was yesterday with little miss Nevaeh’s 1 year birthday session.  And what a beautiful little ball of Heaven she really was!

I fell in love with her big brown eyes!  Isn’t she so sweet!

Showing off daddies tat!  I love it (so does she!)

Ciana – 11 Days New

Remember this beautiful Pregnant woman?  Well today I got to meet her equally beautiful baby girl and what a GOOD GIRL !!!  Baby Ciana (love that name) slept like a charm and did (almost) every pose we wanted!

Just look at those cheeks!!! Oh…I just LOVE cheeks!!! I could just squeeze em, and kiss em…and just eat em up!

I just love this age.  So sleepy…so chubby…so darn lovable!

I could just title this shot:  “Sleeping Beauties”…

5 and a half weeks….

Now I have to share my story from yesterday…this is why you should NOT hesitate to call and try and book your newborn in no matter the age, weight, fussyness, calmness, baby achne – etc.  Yesterday at 11 I had beautiful baby Olivia who was only 12 days old.  She came in sleeping and woke right up (totall normal for the start of sessions)…but for the next 3 hours and 40 minutes she didn’t sleep!  She peed on mom, peed down dads back, peed on some props, some towels…and was her beautiful baby girl self (unpredictable) and came to me at the “perfect age” of “under 2 weeks”.  Then just last week, I book in a ssession for 5 and a half week old Matteo.  Mom warns me he is a very fussy baby, probably won’t sleep at all and is there any possibility we can still capture this time for her (especially because Iwas totally booked for the rest of November and December)…but with a cancellation, I was able to get them in 🙂  …so after 3 and a half hours in the early afternoon with Olivia, I thought “uh oh” with baby Matteo coming who mom says is apparently fussy (hee hee hee)…in he comes, out of the car seat and voila – STAYS ASLEEP!! So, we capture some shots…then get him naked and of course wakes up.  (Typical way of things for newborn sessions).  But ah ha! Sleeps AGAIN!  This “fussy” 5 1/2 week old baby boy did magic for me yesterday!  I couldn’t believe how “fussy” he was – NOT!  What a little charmer this guy was!

Second-last shot of the session…STILL SLEEPING! Now, he did protest in between positions…but again – that’s not out of the ordinary! Babies do that! Then quickly fall right back to sleep with a few pats on the bum 🙂

And first shot of the session…see? SLEEPING when unexpected! I love my job! LOVE IT!!!  Enjoy your sneak peak Mr and Mrs. Rodrigues….thanks for coming out from Mississauga!
