Do they make them any cuter?

I love shooting newborns! You can really create some amazing images with all their little wrinkly body parts! I did a post of this mom when she was expecting, and here is their first baby girl! Little Miss E is just darling, and I could eat her up! I shot another newborn last week, a boy, and it's just so funny... newborns need to snack alot to keep them happy during a photo shoot. Which means they make messes on my blankets and props. Both these babies did that, and I just laughed - it's all part of the shoot! Isn't she beautiful? I so wish I had known how to do this kind of stuff when my kids were babies. My youngest turns 6 next week, and last Sunday all the kids were looking through their baby books, and she came to me asking where her's was. I gulped, and said "you know what? Let's make it right now!" LOL So, I've had her pics out and her book out on my counter for 1 1/2 weeks now, and have finished 2 pages! All of her pics were taken on film, and almost all are out of focus and way underexposed. Funny, but I tried to do these same poses 6 years ago with her, and they didn't even begin to turn out! I really love that I have learned so much now, and that I can do fun shots of my kids - oh, wait till I post the beach shots that I just made into posters for the boys - so stinkin' cool!! OK... rambling now... guess I better go... enjoy this little muffin's pics - Mom said she is totally chubbed out already!
