Just right
Timing is everything when planning for a photo session. The first two weeks of life for a newborn session is always a winner, and then at 3 months when babies have developed head/neck control (and at which time they’re likely out of the newborn stage and into the giggly baby stage). But between 6-10 weeks, it can be tricky because they’re not sleepy newborns, but also not yet at the point where they can hold their heads up on their own – so sometimes they’re a bit uncomfortable during sessions. BUT, this sweet baby boy at 6 weeks was such a pleasure to photograph, he was content, easy going, and just adorable!
His house was also full of wonderful natural light…and if that wasn’t already enough to make me grin from ear to ear – his mommy had so many cute, colorful, bold outfits and blankets ready for the photo session – I was just like a kid in a candy store checking out all the fun stuff!
And, the absolute sweetest thing was watching his big cousin interact with him during the photo session. She was so loving and gentle – you could clearly see how much she enjoyed his company – and the feeling seemed mutual, as he slept right in her arms 
Of course, preschoolers (around 4 years old) are usually pretty stoked about the idea of being photographed with a baby….BUT, for a toddler (around 2 years old) it’s no surprise that trying to photograph them with a baby may not be as easy – so when I was able to get this shot (a little game of peekaboo did the trick), I was so excited! How cute are they?!
And of course, baby with his adoring mother. So sweet – these moments. Fleeting moments.
How our babies grow up so fast….
And for the last image from this photo session – my favorite of big cousin with her new little baby buddy. Baby boy is cute as can be, and she is just GORGEOUS!

Dear sister Eva,
I feel so touched to view these photos. And also happy for you.
These are so amazing. Looks like a magazine shoot. I love that one with you holding Milo… and the one with the monkey… and the one with the girls… CUTE!
WOW. Milo is gorgeous! And these pics are absolutely stunning Eva!!
When am I going to see the munchkin IRL?? Give me deets on your NYC trip, love;-)
She made all the babies look just as pure, innocent and as adorable as they are in person. Totally amazing work.
Amazing pictures. The ones of Mom and Milo are so sweet…
Oh goodness! These are so cute – you did a great job
Eva, These are so darling and just amazing!! Milo is just adorable, and the girls with him are too cute for words.
Great pics. Especially like the ones with Milo’s cousins. So cool they’ll grow up together.

I am just ooh’ing and ahhh’ing over these photos – just precious and gorgeous wrapped into one!

Milo-San, Milo-San. Such a cute baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabbbbbyyyy!!!
I love you Milo. You with your cute perfectly round fuzzy hair. Big probing eyes. Strong neck that was lifting up his head at 2 weeks.
You have an appetite like no other, 6oz per feeding. And when you hit that magic number you are topped off like a car or some rising flour. I see it in your face, “Okay I’m good now, you can put me to sleep whenever you’re ready.
So cute, So ccuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuutttteee. Nite nite.
Milo-San
Very Beautiful, Eva!
