Iris (9 days new)

Remember the baby shower I co-hosted not long ago?  Well, that little baby arrived and she's so precious.  Her momma let me come over and practice on her.  Besides Peyton, she is the first newborn I've photographed.  I was a tad nervous, but at the same time there was no pressure.  I learned a lot...mostly what not to do or how to do something better, but that's the way it goes.  Can't get better without practicing, right?  I'm happy with what we got and maybe I'll get the chance to squeeze in another session before she gets out of the sleepy phase.

She was so good.  She slept for a nice long stretch and let us move her and change accessories.  Then she woke up and gave me some good eye contact.
