Little big eyes! Newborn photography

May 26, 2011 · In Newborn Photography · By Allison Carenza

Paxton...small, long, huge eyes, and wide awake!  But so content.

New parents are easy to spot.  All tentative, and gentle, a little unsure, and in total awe.  That would pretty much sum up Tim and Jamie.

I could also tell they must make a pretty good team because they came into the studio well rested, just 2 weeks after baby Paxton was born.  Being a new parent must be so challenging, but having someone to help you must make it a whole lot easier.  When I asked Jamie if the nurses taught her a lot in the hospital, she was all, um no.  Then she laughed and told me her mom made fun of her when she changed Paxton's diaper for the first time with Tim...together.

This is the point in the shoow when I was like, little Paxton please close those big eyes so I can get a sleepy shot, and he was like, but look how cute I am.  Typically newborns are so fussy when I pose them awake, but not Paxton, I could do anything.  I think he's going to be laid back.

Tim and Jamie,  enjoy every moment with this little man.  He'll be grown up before you know it.

Thanks for letting me capture these.
