Last of the Littles - Whitman County Newborn Photographer

My time in Utah, the land of perpetual babies, is over.  I can't believe the great opportunities that presented themselves to me in the form of brand spankin new babies just waiting to be photographed!  There is no shortage of babies in that state, this is a fact.  My last trip to Target (peace be upon that glorious store) yielded pregnant lady sightings in the double hands... like 7 or 8 of them. In the same store!  At the same time!

It was so very nice to get the amount of practice that I did during my short stay in the Beehive State.  Thank you, dear people, who let me hum and haw and try to work my way through a newborn photo session with your wee ones.

This little man, however, is the Last of the Littles for a while...

Due to time constraints, diapers, nursing and all manner of newborn-typical delays, I ended up with no more than 35 minutes total to shoot.  If I had not been leaving the state just days after our time together I would have certainly rescheduled for another chance.  But it was nice to see how much I could get done in a short time. 

Note to self:  Be prepared to spend three hours minimum at a newborn shoot, and don't be surprised if you have to return to get the shots you want.

I'm confident now that I can do a newborn shoot well, in fact, I think from now on I will feel very comfortable charging the full session fee for a newborn package (gasp).  I'm not saying this is my specialty.  Oh no.  Lots of work.  Lots of planning.  Lots of sweat. but they really are sweet, aren't they?  And what  a blessing to capture their newness before it disappears (all too quickly).

Thank you, dear Utahns, for being so good at what you do!  Such beautiful little babies come of all that multiplying and replenishing... A+ I say.  A+ indeed.
