the world seems to fly past us. every year it seems the amount of pressure put on us, as a society, increases exponentially. we worry about our finances, huff and puff when a line is too long, rush to work on our morning commute, and do backflips in high heels. it seems impossible that anyone is living a life free of stress… until i see a baby. what would one give to go back to that time in your life?!? can you imagine your biggest worry being the fact that your pacifier fell on the floor and you can’t get it back?? the biggest kicker is that a baby doesn’t even realize how good that life is – so we never even get to take advantage of it!
as i spent the afternoon in Houston with Camden and his proud new mom, Jessica, i couldn’t help but take advantage of the tranquility that comes along with newborn baby photography… especially with this little guy. at 2 weeks old, all he wanted to do was sleep. he was more than happy to lay in nearly any position Jessica put him in, and it made for some really great photography. and what a beautiful baby… perfectly round little head, milky skin, and tiny features. if only every baby was this well behaved.
how adorable is that little face?? i am in love with his eye color.
Camden's little hand wrapped around daddy’s finger. so sweet.
i love this photo. he looks so soft and innocent laying on that big pile of towels.
big sister Crystalyn with a mischevious little look on her face!
one of the few times camden was cranky during the shoot - hey, the big stress of feeding time was upon him.
grandma joined us at the end for a few photos.
as always, my favorite photo for last. when i was a little girl the drapes in my bedroom looked like these ones. i remember blinking my eyes open each morning to the sun shining through my soft white windows just like this. so i suppose my opinion on this photo is a bit biased, but it's my photo and i'm allowed to be! :-p
