Oh my goodness, where do I even begin? I recently had the absolute pleasure of photographing the most adorable newborn baby boy and let me tell you, this little guy stole my heart from the moment I met him!
Baby A isn't just any newborn baby - he's the third addition to his family and luckily has two older brothers who were just as excited as I was to meet him! These two little guys were bouncing off the walls with excitement, eagerly waiting to hold their baby brother and show him off to the world.
I had the pleasure of photographing both the older brothers through their first years of life and let me tell you, it was so special to see how much they had grown and matured since I had last seen them. With the brand new arrival of their baby brother, the energy in the room was just electric - I could feel the love and excitement radiating off of this wonderful family.
As I began to snap away, capturing all of the sweetest moments of Aahi's first professional images of life, I couldn't help but marvel at how perfect he was. From his tiny fingers and toes, to all his gorgeous hair and his button nose, this little guy was an absolute dream to photograph.
And of course, I can't forget to mention how incredible Baby As two older brothers were during the session. These two little guys were so sweet and patient with their new baby brother, helping to hold him and soothe him when he got fussy. Parents often ask me if it is safe to add older siblings to their newborn session and I always say, "yes!". Depending of the age of the older siblings, posing is done with care and with safety at the forefront of concerns. I usually pose newborns with siblings lying down, the image shot directly from above. This makes it much easier for the often young siblings to be close to their new brother or sister without having to carefully hold the baby.
As the session came to a close, I couldn't help but feel a little emotional - capturing these early moments in a baby's life is such a privilege, and to be able to do it for a family that I've come to know and love over the years is truly special. Aahi, you are one lucky guy to be born into such a wonderful family, and I can't wait to see all of the amazing things you will do in this world.
Thank you to both parents for allowing me to capture these precious memories for your family. And to Baby As two older brothers: keep being the amazing big brothers that you are!
