Baby Fever

**Warning--If you are prone to "Baby Fever" you may not want to view the following images.**

If these two cuties aren't enough to give you a little "baby fever" then you can definitely consider yourself done with babies for good. :) We have absolutely no intention of any more children, but I do LOVE to get my "baby fix" when newborns come into the studio.

The two newborns I photographed this week were about as opposite as you can get, but they were both beautiful and so much fun. Lauren was around 9 pounds at birth. She is four weeks old in these images and at least 10 pounds according to her parents. She was wide awake for much of the session, but did take a couple of "power naps."








Ella was around 5 pounds at birth and 2 weeks old in these photos. She was one of the tiniest and sleepiest babies I have ever photographed. I tried to use a "size reference" in some of the photos so you can get an idea of just how tiny she was. The feet with wedding rings photos give a good reference to how big her mother's rings look on her little feet. The photo of her with her mom also gives a good reference.








Both of these sweet girls were so expressive to be so young, so I hope to see them back at three months old and see how they've grown.

By the way, if you viewed these images even after my warning and are now suffering from an unwanted case of baby fever, never fear. Just come spend a few hours at my house and I'm sure we can cure it right up. :)

Which leads me to my next order of business for this blog post. Tory and I are headed to Bald Head Island tomorrow for a much needed weekend away. Our 10 year wedding anniversary was in May but I wasn't ready to leave Stella overnight just yet at that time. Now we are ready and looking forward to a nice quiet weekend, although the huge storm brewing on the coast may put a damper on things! All emails and phone calls received after this evening will be returned on Monday.
