Default my first newborn shoot

this little fella was about 7 or 8 weeks premature, (roughly.. guys dont reember those sorts of facts we only remember facts about tanks and stuff)

he was supposed to be born this week. and now weights around 7lbs,
and he's strong! he even held his own head up while he was being winded by mum.

the room was ULTRA warm, and i got totally dehydrated, but he was so good and did prettymuch whatever we asked of him.


definatley learned alot, next time i'll be on the ball.

Really good shots. I like the pose you have in your second shot. it is so creative and different.

Very nicely done !! You may have found a new niche for yourself.

I don't know what being winded means ... is that being burped ???

Wonderful shots. I can't determine which I like the best. Congratulations to you and your wife.


A newborn child with eyes so bright
You are, indeed, a wondrous sight
Your skin is soft; your features small
But, you are loved by one and all
I know tears fell from cherubs’ eyes
As they embraced you with goodbyes
Before you flew from high above
To grace us with God’s gift of love.
