the bear family

This lovely little family lives in my parent’s building and I was so happy to meet them and their very new little girl. I think she was the easiest baby I ever photographed- so sleepy and so easily soothed back into sleeping when she did wake briefly.

I think they love her. Just a little bit! This was one of those ‘inbetween’ shots, which often turn out to be my favorites. As this did.  She gave up a ton of smiles, but it was always when I had the camera down. Finally caught one!

I was sad to hear that they were moving out of the building, but they have a big lovely new home to move into. I was going for the American Gothic look here (but don’t worry, there’s one with them smiling too)! Good luck with the move (and the wall paper removal)! So great meeting all of you!!
