Instead of sulking, I got busy making plans to shoot my own newborn pictures of Leo.
I was determined to capture his tiny days and do it well.
I ordered a few neutral baby items, some signature baby items like the lion hat and used lots of household props to make these pictures happen. I also incorporated some sentimental things - hat from my sister, blanket from a sweet Great Grandma and a fruit quilt from another Great Grandma.
I'm REALLY happy with how his pictures turned out. I feel like I captured newborn Leo well. I would have loved some sibling pictures or some family pictures, but those will have to wait a bit until we can book a photographer for a family shoot.
I took these pictures over his first few weeks vs one big session. It's hard for me to settle on a favorite picture. Tell me your favorite Leo picture in the comments!
Sweet Leo! I'm so thankful for this little guy.
You did a great job! I think the one with the yawn is my favorite - but they are all so precious. He is too sweet!
ReplyDeleteI love that you caught a smile in one! ❤️Mimi
ReplyDeleteHow could you choose a fave??? I started trying to keep track of my favorites but then lost count! Definitely love numbers four, five, and nine, but again, started losing count at all the cute ones. You did a fantastic job! And he is absolutely adorable!
ReplyDeleteHow my goodness! He is just too PRECIOUS!
ReplyDeleteYou did such a great job! They look like a pro took them! My fave is the little yawn, as well as the sweet smile in the greenish blanket. But how can I pick just one? :)
ReplyDeleteYou did so great, friend! These pictures are adorable. My favorite is the yawning picture. Sleepy baby pics are my favorite.
