Grace emailed me years ago to photograph their wedding but at the time we couldn’t travel because of babies. So I’m so glad she wrote again when they got pregnant with baby Charlette. I have such a big soft spot for photographing brand new babies and watching new parents at work so I was more than happy it worked out that we’d be in California when their baby was tiny! I did and in home shoot with this adorable new family and everything about their home was precious. He is an architect and she’s a real estate agent so as you can imagine, their newly renovated 1940’s home was perfectly adorable. My favorite part of the shoot was when we were in the babies room trying so hard to get her to go to sleep and we walked out to her daddy passed out on the couch… aahhh parenthood :] Little Charlette 6 weeks old for this shoot so we weren’t sure if she’d be sleepy enough to get some cute sqishy baby photos but it happened! One of the things I love about newborn shoots is you just have no idea what’s going to happen but it always seems to work out perfectly. And I wanted to squish those perfect little cheeks all day long! Congratulations guys, you’ve made one stinkin cute baby!!
