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!
