This morning I got to meet Olivia and her family. She arrived nice and sleepy (as they usually do since they’ve just had a ride in the car), so we got right to work. I could tell instantly that she was going to be fun to photograph. Just under 2 weeks old and she’s already developed quite the personality! She actually posed herself like this, and stayed that way for quite some time. It was hilarious, normally it takes a lot more work on my end to get them to pose, but Olivia was ready!
She woke up after I moved her from her comfortable position and tried to pose her in the next prop.
Don’t let this one fool you, she was actually awake, I just happened to catch a quick blink.
As I was going through the pictures to edit this one caught my daughter’s eye. She convinced me I just had to include it!
I have to say, one week really makes a difference in strength with newborns. I’m finding that once they reach the 2 week mark, they are considerably stronger than the week prior. Olivia was quite the kicker! She almost kicked her way off my bean bag chair, and I just couldn’t keep her little feet inside the cocoon.
Don’t let this one fool you either, it was just another blink.
After a while Olivia grew pretty tired of the posing. We knew right from the beginning that we wanted to get some family shots, so I went ahead and brought Dad in, and within seconds she had fallen asleep in his arms!
She was definitely happy with her daddy!
Thank you, Rebecca, for bringing your precious little Olivia over today. It was a pleasure to meet all of you and I hope to see you again soon!
