the led family 3.0
As you saw from the sneak preview the other day(and shown again above), this great family just welcomed a new baby, their third girl! I love working with them- mom is the nicest and has the best outlook on life. And the girls have come SO far with me since we started taking their pictures over a year ago. I think they might actually like me at this point, and I couldn’t ask for more than that. Genuine smiles and happy giggles.
Grandma and Grandpa were in from out of town to visit and help with the new baby, and told me how their home out west is covered in pictures of the girls that I took. Needless to say, I liked them right away! And now they will get a few pictures to add to their collection with them actually in it!
Didya notice all the frames in the background? All pictures I took. There’s nothing that is more satisfying (other than repeat customers and referrals!) than walking into a clients home and seeing your work prominently displayed. Hopefully, there will be some of this shoot’s included soon too!
The baby was fast asleep when I got there and got started with pictures which was good and bad. Good because she was happy and I could work quickly with the bigger girls before it was lunchtime and naptime for them. Bad because then she woke up and all the pictures I had in my head for the perfect squished up sleeping baby shots were not going to happen. But, we rocked it nonetheless with some awesome eyecontact from this three week old sweet baby girl. So the bad– actually not bad at all.
I asked my mom to make me some new knit props for newborns that I have seen other photographers use. She’s an awesome knitter (seriously, the woman can KNIT) and whipped up 4 of these buntings/peapods for me in different colors. Thanks, Mommy Dearest!! It worked out great.
The day after the shoot was her Christening, so we got some shots of the beautiful handmade family heirloom gown.
Hope you like the pictures K and family. Great seeing you all again and meeting little miss C. She’s delish. For a viewing of the whole gallery of images from our shoot, click HERE.
