Newborn Girl

Next newborn installment….

Most of the newborns that come to see me haven’t lost their umbilical stump yet.  This little lady lost hers during the session!  Now you see it…

Now you don’t…

I never get tired of this pose…the little fist under her chin, pouty lips, cheeks just asking to be pinched (gently!)…

This one says, “I am SO tired!”

I love how she’s settled into his arms, like a baby bird emerging from her daddy-nest.

She was another one of my rare newborns that can focus far away, so we can get great awake shots too.

And lastly….my all time most favorite ever “babe in arms” shot!  We made Dad work pretty hard for this shot, and it was so worth it!  She’s just melted into him!

And beautiful Mama and Daddy too.  This family has visited me a number of times with their first born, and now I get to watch this little guy grow up too!  You can see big sister here, and here, and here.

Family Session

I’ve had so many repeat customers lately. It’s wonderful to have them back and see how the kids have changed. In this case, there’s a new addition to the family as well!  Here are the three girls together.

Big sis was feeling a little shy at the beginning of the session. She needed a little snuggle with mom.

3 month old ~ Baby Photography

You met this little girl already. Her newborn shots are posted here.  And now, here she is at 3 months.  She was asleep for part of the shoot and awake for part. Here she is in her mommy’s old baby dress.

Pretty Girl ~ Melanie B Photography ~ Child Photographer ~ Maryland

My first shoot of the spring, with just a tiny bit of green starting, was of a beautiful 3-year-old girl.  I’ve been lucky enough to photograph her 4 times, and she just gets more lovely each time.
