Sweet little Payton here was HANDS DOWN the easiest baby I've ever photographed. :) She was so good to me! I arrived and she was awake, rocking outside on the front porch with her mama. She loves the outdoors and her mama was hoping she'd fall asleep if given long enough. I suggested we just do the session outside since she likes it so much!
We moved to the back porch where the light was beautifully bouncing off the ceiling and floors. Granted, it's HOT here this time of year - even at 10 in the morning! - and so it didn't take long for me to start dripping sweat. But little Payton was as happy as could be - warm and snuggly. Thank you so MUCH to her mama for keeping me hydrated and even getting a fan for me . . . at one point I was a little concerned I'd melt. :) (That's what I get for wearing jeans in summer, right??)
Anyway, I can't tell you how much fun it was to photograph Payton because she was SOOO sleepy and SOOO flexible. :) She let me play and play . . . she fussed just long enough for her mama to feed her and then she was out again. I was in HEAVEN with this tiny little girl!! (And what a BEAUTY!! Believe me - not ALL babies are this beautiful, even my little Olivia looks a bit like a snake - ha!!)
Well, I'll just have to let you see for yourselves. :)
Beauuuuuutiful!!!! She is so precious and you did awesome bringing that out!
