Richmond Missouri Newborn Photographer ~ Legend’s Newborn Session
This one was a special one for me! I want to introduce you guys to Legend Ezekiel Ray. Tay and Zayvion were so loving toward this little guy. Dad gave him kisses on his little forehead when I took him and it made me melt. They are going to be fantastic parents and I know he has an army at home to love on him. This is one of the sweetest families I know!
I did Tay’s Senior photo session in high school and she chose me to do her newborn photo session too! This boy was sooooooo good for all the different poses I wanted to do. She had sent me a few ideas she found on Pinterest and I tried my best to give her everything she wanted. The little bear is always a popular one.
I was swooning over this boys hair, All my newborn sessions lately I feel like they have had nice little heads of hair, which doesn’t happen very often! All boys too…… lot’s of newborn boys lately. I think I can almost see a little grin, he was having some sweet dreams in that bucket. One other thing I try to do in all my newborn sessions is get the little feet, lips, hands, ears…. they will never be this small again, we have to get the details!!
And mom’s hands wrapped around her sweet boy……
Tay asked me to try this swing pose for her, I have only done it a couple times before, and by this time he was kind of over us messing with him, he just wanted to sleep and be left alone! This is why I do mostly wrapped poses for my sessions. When you unleash those arms and legs the babe tends to wake up and get wiggly. Took us a minute but we got it!
It was so good seeing Tay and meeting her two new loves, Zayvion and Legend, I wish all the best for you guys and thank you again for choosing me to capture these memories for you!
Holden, MO Cakesmash Photographer ~ One in a Melon!
I just met this sweet little lady and she came in with some sass let me tell ya! She was FULL of personality! It was so fun getting to meet her during her cake smash session!
It’s not to often they are walking when I do their cake smash… not usually anyway, but my past few have not only been walkers but RUNNERS! It wears mom out but it makes for some fun photos! This girl even picked up my stool and was trying to take a big ‘ol bite out of it.. we were dying laughing at her! (see photo below)
Then comes the smash part of the photo session! She was NOT into the cake at all. Given her spunky, fun personality we thought she was going to really tear into it! NOPE. Not even close! But see, that is where my job comes in ! It may not go smooth as we would like and isn’t always as fun as it looks… but you pay me to capture these photos and I will do my absolute best to do it no matter the situation! See the photos below and you would never know she didn’t have the time of her life! We did it! It takes some work but we get through it! Now mom will have these photos to remember this time in her life forever and I know when Aspen grows up she will get a good laugh out of them too!
And then there’s the bath….. they almost always love the bath even if they don’t love the cake…. Aspen however was over us at this point…… but we still managed to get a smile.
