Big thanks to baby Wyatt’s mom Britney for entrusting me with the honor of photographing her newborn. This was my first newborn shoot that I have done, but I knew from the moment she asked me to shoot it that she had complete trust in what I could do. That is so huge to me. As a photographer, knowing I have that kind of trust gives me complete freedom to do the best job possible, and lets me focus on creativity instead of worrying about other things. I love knowing that my clients are my friends, not just people I do work for. Thank you Britney.
Moving on. Little Wyatt was an adorable baby. Even though the house felt like an oven and he had just been fed, he refused to sleep for the first half of the shoot, but he still let us take some great pictures of him. I guess he wanted to be awake for his first modeling job 🙂 The new big sister, Kennedy, was super helpful and adorable too. I couldn’t help but get some ridiculously cute shots of her too.
I loved the wall over his crib. It definitely inspired my prayer for Wyatt:
“Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the LORD your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.”
(Deuteronomy 31:6 ESV)
Does putting a baby on a shelf make sense? No.
Is it so cute it’s insane? YES! haha
You gotta love a family that bleeds blue! This is how we roll in Kentucky. This little Wildcat was definitely the most comfortable when wearing blue.
It was crazy! In the picture below, Wyatt actually started yelling “GOOOOOO CATS!”… not really, but that would be great right?
It was time for Wyatt to take a little break and get some food, so Kennedy tried to sneak off into her room…
Luckily me and her dad decided to follow her 🙂
Then Dave tackled her from her little bed jumping activity and they had a little tickle fight. That’s like catnip to a photographer. Turning the cute up to 11! (yes, that was a Spinal Tap reference in a newborn shoot blog post haha)
Dave loves those kids like crazy. He has definitely been blessed.
So, before heading to this shoot, knowing that Dave and Britney were huge UK fans, I figured I’d try and express that for them by bringing some colorful ESPN magazines as an awesome background to accent the awesome UK outfit they had for Wyatt. It couldn’t have turned out better!
I’d say that was a touchdown shoot… Wyatt agrees! 🙂 IT’S GOOD!!!!
