Those of you who know me or have been following my blog know that I’ve been having some problems with my back and neck.  I’ve been in PT for a few weeks and I’m soooo much better than I was at the beginning of March.  Being injured, I had to postpone some of my shoots.  So I give a big “Thank You” to clients for being so patient with me!  I had a shoot today with a 4 month old baby girl who was born 5 weeks early.   She is a tiny little thing compared to my son who was born just three days before her!  But what a BIG smile–when she decided she would give a few up for me, that is!!  🙂  She was in and out of being totally alert and happy and then sound asleep–which really works for a 3-4 month old shoot.  It’s an awkward age to photograph because they are well out of the  newborn stage when they are sleepy and curled and before the sitting 6 month old stage and aren’t always so great on their tummies which can be limiting.  So, if they sleep I do get to treat it somewhat like a newborn shoot.  If only we had scheduled the shoot yesterday when it was NINETY degrees…I tried for some environmental shots outdoors but the cool wind wouldn’t let up so we kept her as comfortable and wrapped as possible.  Alas, she awoke and was ready for lunch.  The tutu shot is for mom who really wanted to try it.  Enjoy!!
