Can you believe those eyes? He was so happy and so good for me and I just love that one patch of hair on top of his head. Shooting in the studio is such a dream, the light is divine.

I had the honor of Photographing this little guy when he was five days old and it never ceases to amaze me how fast these little people grow. His mom and dad flew me up to Atlanta for his photo shoot and it was SO cold (especially for my thin Florida blood) and SO dark and rainy.  Armed with my fabulously trusty Nikon D700 which can handle low light like nothing I have ever seen, I headed out in my rental car through Atlanta traffic to see what awaited me. As soon as I walked in I got smiles from ear to ear (from mom and dad too since they are so so nice and made me feel right at home immediately). We got about 15 minutes into our shoot and then he got sleepy. Very sleepy. Uh oh. I knew one thing. I did not come all this way to get 15 minutes with him. So, we all headed up to his nursery and chatted quietly while he took a very nice power nap and when he awoke, he shined!!! Four outfits (almost unheard of at this age) later it was time for me to head back home. What an amazing gift. He not only cooperated but gave me more smiles than I think I have ever been able to capture from one baby. I am looking so forward to watching him grow and we already have plans to meet again when he turns one. What an honor it is to capture these small moments in his little life.
