Welcome to the world, Baby Lucy! July 9, 2009

Today I got to meet the newest little life I know. Lucy Jean was born late last night — and I got to snap her first professional photos when she was just over 12 hours old. :) My good friends Rachel and Jonathan welcomed their baby girl into the world… here she is:

One Month Old: Kherington’s Newborn Portraits April 25, 2009

Favorite baby photo ever… see above. :)

Little Kherington was so good during our photo shoot yesterday. She turns exactly one month old today, so her parents scheduled her newborn session just in time. :) We did the session in their home, which is always the most convenient for parents of new little ones and it’s just more cozy that way. :)

Kherington is so beautiful. Here are some of her photos!

See where she gets her good looks from? Yep, her super cute parents. That baby has some good genes. :)

Kherington made the BEST faces for us when she was in her crib. These are some of my favorites — look at that cute face!

Some more photos with her parents… Lindsey and Al are such great parents. This is their first baby, and they are so sweet to her — they love their daughter!

This is a neat mirror that hangs in Kherington’s nursery:

My sister-in-law Leslie is a knitting wizard. Seriously. So when I explained to her that I wanted these warm and fuzzy little “cocoons” for babies to snuggle up in for newborn photos, she took on the challenge and made me a set without a pattern or anything. Is she good or what?! If you want one of these cozy little pouches for your baby, leave me a comment and I’ll connect you with Leslie!

Anyway, Kherington was the first to try out the cocoons and I think she loved them. Perfect, peaceful sleep…

Al and Lindsey, thank you for letting me meet your beautiful baby girl. I hope to see you all again sometime soon!
