And I do mean BLESSING!?? I was astounded at how well he slept.?? He woke only ONCE to eat.?? Not sure I will ever again have a newborn quite this cooperative.?? This shoot was done when he was 15 days old (I think).?? He was early though so technically he wasn&#8217;t done baking yet.?? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Last week during our workshop, I had the opportunity to participate in a bride\/groom shoot and then later a newborn shoot.?? As fun as it is to shoot a bride in her gown (and that is fun), I can&#8217;t say I am particularly &#8220;moved&#8221; by the experience.???? When I arrived on the set for the newborn shoot, one little look at the tiny babe and tears instantly sprung to my eyes.?? Babies are what inspired my love for photography &#8211; waiting for them and then experiencing motherhood.?? I hope to get many more newborn shoots next year because these little ones turn my heart to mush and I am always GRATEFUL to have been given the opportunity to participate in their new lives &#8211; even for just a few hours.?????? I feel &#8220;in love&#8221; every single time.?? Without further ado&#8230;meet Jameson.?? He is pretty wonderful isn&#8217;t he?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jimanddoni.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Kirkland_Jameson_0018bw.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"465\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jimanddoni.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Kirkland_Jameson_0022.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"464\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jimanddoni.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Kirkland_Jameson_0037bw.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"464\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jimanddoni.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Kirkland_Jameson_0059.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"630\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jimanddoni.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Kirkland_Jameson_0074.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"630\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I wanted a perspective picture so that mom and dad could better visualize just how tiny their six pounder once was.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jimanddoni.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Kirkland_Jameson_0087bw2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"464\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jimanddoni.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Kirkland_Jameson_0099.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"464\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Does that make you just want to kiss him or what?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jimanddoni.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Kirkland_Jameson_0123bw.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"630\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This precious little hat was made by his Grandma.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jimanddoni.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Kirkland_Jameson_0155C.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"464\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Good grief is this a hard shot to get.?? It takes three people and a willing baby and only works 1\/3 of the time.?? (Maybe as I get smarter about it I will raise the statistics I hope).?? And yes, there are some smoke and mirrors going on here for safety of baby.?? Baby was only a couple of inches above a large body pillow.?? No worries folks.?? I also will tell you that I played tug o war with my brother to make sure that sling would not slip.?? If you are hoping to schedule a newborn shoot and want a &#8220;stork&#8221; shot, please let me know ahead of time as we will need 3 people on set and I will need to bring the tree.?? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jimanddoni.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/Kirkland_Jameson_0172.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"464\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Caught him smiling!??
