Brand New Boy  {Austin Newborn Photographer  |  Barbara LeGere}

A friend of mine won a session from me through our children's preschool silent auction.  It was a win for all of us!  While she has two darling girls, her spur of the moment idea was a newborn session for her brand new baby boy.  And, what a splendid idea it was!  His favorite spot was clearly the swaddle, just like any brand new baby.  So, we "decorated" him ET style and had a few good giggles doing it.  Can't wait to watch this precious baby boy grow up.  Thank you for the opportunity to capture him while he still sits still.

They just moved into a new house.  (Gasp!  Can you believe trying to move with two kids AND preggers?)  I think this wall is begging for one of these portraits right over the chair.:)

Ah, newborns.  It's amazing how much we love things that are so tiny and helpless.  It's impossible not to love this sweet 10 day old baby.  Ten days!  And, mom already looks amazing.  Congratulations!!  Thank you for letting me help capture this sweet time in his (very) young life!

I had the distinct pleasure of capturing this baby in the belly, just a few days old and again for a "real" session at about 3 months old.  What a beautiful baby!  As my husband says: now that's a good head shape. 

Mom and I were joking how much she looks like Daddy.  But, I have to tell you, after processing these images, she's going to be stunning, just like her Mama.

Can't wait to see you again sweet baby!
