Jeremy and Kelley recently added beautiful baby Caroline to their family and asked if I’d swing by and do a session.  I’ve been photographing this family for a couple years now, and they’ve become special to me.  Their first son Jackson’s newborn session.  Jackson’s baptism.  Spring and Fall family portraits.  I love that they keep including me in the documenting of these important times.

To Baby Caroline—you’ve got a great family and many memories to create.  Can’t wait to see you growing up—just not too fast, okay?!

Here are a few of my favorites from the session:

Our friends Tiffiney and George just brought home their newest sweet baby—Spencer.  I dropped by last week to document some sleepy moments from day 10.  I love thinking about how big this world must seem to him, and what he’s thinking about when he’s smiling in his sleep.  He’s got a great life ahead of him, full of love from his mom and dad and five siblings.

Before I show you my favorite images from this session, let me just be really up front and honest.  I’m not a natural when it comes to photographing newborns.  I’m really happy with how these turned out, but I could not have done this without the help of my friend and uber-talented photographer Aseel Gomez.  I’m prone to use hyperbole in my writing, but not here with what I’m about to say about Aseel.  It’s a fact….There is no better newborn photographer in Lexington than Aseel.  At all.  Not even close.

Aseel came out to Tiffiney’s and George’s home to help me with the shoot.  I was behind the camera, but she worked all the magic.  She’s got the gift.  Like a baby-whisperer.  Thank you, Aseel.
