My sister-in-law Sandra recently gave birth to a beautiful chunky baby girl named Abigail, or Abbie for short. I paid a visit to the ladies and my brother Josh for a photo session when Abbie was just a few weeks old.
Abbie is less than three-moths younger than my baby Neve so I can’t wait to watch them grow up together as cousins and friends.
Some people I love are getting married and I am lucky enough to be their wedding photographer. You may remember the beautiful Melissa & dashing Roman from their modeling days in the It’s a Small World shoot I was lucky enough to be a part of. Well this time, for their engagement photos, Melissa & Roman were all dressed up as themselves, first looking like a Tommy Hilfiger ad and then in traditional German clothing to represent Roman’s homeland. You’ve probably never seen lederhosen and a dirdl look so fashionable; maybe you don’t even know what lederhosen or a dirdl are. Well, then you are in for a treat. We jumped on a ferry to Coronado and downed some beer in steins in a brewery, making for a fabulously fun day with these two lovelies.
Just a few weeks before her due date, my sister-in-law Sandra & I ventured out to take some preggo portraits of her, and she brought along my adorable niece Emma. My new niece Abbie was born exactly two weeks after our session, so now they are a happy family of four. You’d never know that Emma inherited my brother’s aversion to having their photo taken, and Sandra–as always–was the perfect subject. Photos of baby Abbie will be following soon!
I’m a bad bad mommy. Actually, that’s not true at all; I’d like to think I’m a pretty good mommy. But you would think as a photographer I’d have taken about a million photos of my newborn as soon as she arrived. However, there’s this little issue of well, having a newborn! It’s a little all consuming and though I’ve taken photos here and there of my little cherub, before I realized it, she was three months old and I hadn’t even done a full newborn session of her. So on Neve’s three-month birthday–which was last week, we got down to business and this is what happened. Enjoy!
