.natural light boy.

I can’t tell you how excited I am about this shoot.   First of all…the mother of these two amazing little boys is such an amazing person (The Dad is awesome too!).   Many of you in Victor know her and have been blessed to have her as a teacher in the Victor Early Education Building (Pre K, K and 1st grade).   I had the honor of doing her first babies newborn pictures last year and just last week she welcomed her second little boy to the world and I am so excited to be able to shoot him too!   I will also add that both CJ and Connor had her as a teacher, and they made her class…lets say….a little bit more interesting, so for that reason, she gets more sneak peek pictures!   lol!

Anyway, the second reason I am so excited about the last few newborn shoots is that I am finally getting away from my big ol’ flash unit and shooting with almost ALL natural light!!   I can’t tell you how excited I am about the results.   Stepping away from the flash allows me a little bit more room to creatively mess with camera settings to get the look that I really want.   That look is more natural and not being stuck behind the flash allows me to capture more newborn “moments” that I have not been able to capture before.    So thank you to the last few of newborns for allowing me to play a bit!

Little Mr. R was full of “moments”.

Perfect lips.

…and feet.

…and hands…with very long fingers!

…and yawns.

…and sneezes!!   God Bless you!!

And perfect sleepy moments.

During a feeding, I snuck out back with his big brother and was able to get a few outdoor shots of him as well!   He is ONE busy boy!!

…who was on a mission.

Congratulations Jenn, Chris and big brother T!   Welcome to the world Ryder!!
