I’ve never really ventured into family or baby photography. Its an area I’m not 100% comfortable with and honestly, there are photographers out there with a much better eye for all things kids and baby and who do an amazing job with that particular style of photography, better than I ever could. However, things change when all of a sudden you have a newborn on your hands and in an effort to document and persevere all of his baby cuteness, along with his tiny features, you find yourself shooting way out of your comfort zone. So this week, Keane became the perfect baby model, allowing me the opportunity to flex my baby shooting skills.
We started the shoot with a little outdoorsy action and honestly, what’s cuter than a newborn in a bucket?
How about a yawning newborn in a bucket?
After a quick feed and a change, Keane slipped off into blissful baby sleep and I got busy capturing all of his baby perfections.
Gotta love the tiny fingers and toes.
The sleepy profile.
Ooops, suddenly awake and wondering what in the world is going on?
Soo so cute! You should shoot babies more often
And that yawn picture – absolutely precious! A definite must have large print in your home. Congratulations on your little one!
Karen!! These are so great. He’s looking like such a big boy
and Keane is a great model!
Oh there’s nothing cuter than a baby in a bucket until he yawns. Just precious, Karen. He is beautiful, congratulations.
Fantastic pictures sis. Agree the yawn picture should be a large print in the new house
Having just read that you shot your baby and put him in a bucket I must say I could not be prouder!
Very very cute shots.
