Trick or Treat! | Cobourg Photographer

Landon was born on Halloween, and with my trip to Ecuador, he was three weeks before he visited my studio. But for a three week old. He was a very good three week old I have to say and I didn’t mind the extra snuggles needed here and there….

I think Peyton has been the most smiley newborns I’ve had in the studio so far. And I only caught half of them. She liked to wait until I put down the camera to give the big ones. She was so sweet and fun to work with, and was a very good girl. Slept through most of it. Here are just a few favorites!

As I’ve said before, twins hold a very special spot in my heart. I love twins. I think everyone should have a set. You really don’t know what you’re missing out on. I really really hoped that my last baby was twin boys. So whenever twins come to the studio, I get excited. Alexandria and Braydon were born at 32 weeks, so we had to wait a bit before they got to come to the studio. And those two did not like to touch each other much. I would get one settled, and the other would be upset. At one point, I had Braydon in my arms getting him back to sleep when Alexandria started to smile. so camera in one hand, Braydon in the other, I got that smile! Can’t wait to watch these two grow up!

Oh, and I laughed with this one…

Sawyer was adorable. cute. chubby. cuddly. squishy. I was finding myself just giving him extra little snuggles. Such a handsome little man. He spent a long chunk at the studio, and I have to say, his older brother Carter was a VERY good boy while there. Not so interested in getting in the photos, but still a very good boy. Brad and Gill, you made another perfect little man!

Happy Halloween!

Hope everyone has a fun night trick or treating! I’m guessing this little Frankenstein is just going to be sleeping this Halloween!

Ok, these twins just left (literally, mommy and daddy are still loading them up in the car infront of the studio) but I had to post this photo of them (there will be more, but they will be posted in order, after my other sessions still needing to be posted). Alexandria and Brayden were born at 32 weeks, weighing just over 3 pounds. Tomorrow is actually their due date. For premies, they were a bit more active then I had thought today….they didn’t want to touch each other much, but with lots of patience we got some adorable photos. My sister made these hats for this session (she’s on facebook, Happie Cappies by Erica) and I was so excited to get this shot to work. I won’t lie, twins hold a very special spot in my heart, and even though these two cried a good amount, I had so much fun with them and can’t wait for them to come back three more times this year!

I’ve been photographing Cody’s sister for the past year, and now it’s Cody’s turn for his photosessions. Mommy is going to have her hands full with these two, they are pretty close in age! But I’m sure Riley is going to be a big help as the older sister, whether Cody likes it or not!

I’m very sad that Lyla’s birth photography slideshow is not working, but her mom is anxious to see some photos, so it will have to get a post all of its own once it is working. Lyla was not my typical fiesty little girl. She slept pretty good, would open her eyes here and there and then close them up for awhile. Her big brother has been coming to the studio since he was three months, and I had forgotten that he didn’t come as a newborn, so I didn’t explain as much during this session. Then after some comments about how neat it was the different ways I could pose her hands and feet and hands, I realized that Keith and Holly hadn’t seen this before! Oops! I love her hair, and I think she looks just like mommy. That’s what her daddy thinks too. I’m excited to watch her grow….(the bunny shot is one of my favorites right now!)

Birth photography and Newborn Photography are ‘my thing’. I love them. They give me butterflies and fill me with excitement each time. Photographing a birth gives me one of those natural highs that just makes everything else better. It’s hard to explain why I love it so much, but I do. And then when they come visit just a few days new all squishy and edible (yes, sometimes I want to just eat them up!) I can’t think of a better way to spend my morning. Grady’s birth was even that much more exciting to me since his mommy and daddy are very good friends of ours. I’m pretty good at holding back the emotions, but this one made me cry. I have been bugging Matt and Kristen to have babies since the day I photographed their wedding, so I’ve been patiently waiting for this. (If you ask Kristen she would probably say I wasn’t all that patient). It was a hard labor for Kristen. Her water broke at 2am Thursday morning and after having contractions all day and all night but not much progress, it was decided to do a c-section. Probably a good idea since the cord was wrapped around his neck twice! He looks so much like Matt, but I do see mommy in there too. I’ve been bugging her to let me have him for a sleepover, and I’ve finally got her convinced! I mean, what mom doesn’t need one night of uninterrupted sleep to feel like she can tackle the huge job of being a mom. I remember those nights of no sleep (actually, I still get them often) and so I am so happy to get to have some time with Grady and let Kristen sleep, she deserves it! (I think she’s doing it cause she knows I don’t take no for an answer. I would just keep insisiting, or kidnap him myself).

So here is a video of Grady’s first moments. And then his first photo session….

When I was in the hospital doing a birth photography, Faith was also in there with her mommy and daddy. She’s just a little tiny thing. I think she’s a pretty good mixture between her the two of them, and for a tiny little girl, she was pretty good for me. Usually they are the fiesty ones that fight their sleep, but Faith was so good for me! Thanks Dustin and Sherry for bringing in your newest, lovely addition! I am in newborn heaven right now!
