Pure perfection. I could talk forever about how perfect he is. He was the dream baby for me. He came in with a full belly and never woke up. Mum and Dad undressed him and he stayed asleep. I moved and poked and moulded him into shape and he still stayed asleep. He allowed me to get everything I had planned for and even some moves from the more advanced poses.
The biggest reason why he allowed me to do what we did is because he was just 6 days old. I can’t stress enough that the younger the baby is, the more perfect the shoot. They stay asleep, they loved to be curled and they are pure putty in your hands. I always ask my clients to let me know when they are due so I can pencil them in and save room. Like today, I have a newborn shoot at lunchtime. Mum rang the other day telling me she had a bub who was a week old and I rescheduled some other clients to get bubby in. I always will make room for my newborns because it is essential to get them as young as possible.
Enjoy these photos. I Adore them with a captial A. They make me smile, they warm the heart and they make you appreciate how perfect a newborn is and how that stage doesn’t last long enough.

. She has allowed me to share her journey with you. From belly to an active one year old, I am going to document and share with you their baby. I am incredibly excited about everything that lies ahead. I am even more excited that I can show you just what I see, the beauty of life.
. My favourites are the ones on Dad’s back. She snuggled in and was perfectly content, I think she would have stayed there all day if she could.
Thank you Daina & Ryan for introducing Hunter to me. He is totally gorgeous, adorable, handsome and has a personality that I can’t wait to see develop over the next 12 months. xo
