It was “only” about 90 degrees but after putting off photos for rain, we had to get these done because she’s due next week! I can’t wait to meet the little one soon. I need a newborn fix!

Where did this sass come from? My little niece would be full of smiles one minute and the second I put my camera up, she’d go into sass mode, pose and all. Even when I couldn’t keep a straight face, she did.

Oh wait, she spent the week of spring break with her older, teenage cousin. Now I understand where she got it.

And my other niece, Miss Sassy’s sister, who I am so thankful is out of her cheezo smile phase. Or maybe I just look funnier than I used to.
(Oh and yes, these are unnumbered 365 photos. I feel much less stressed by not keeping track. Plus, I was never really any good with numbers
)
My friend Ted and I headed downtown to St. Mark’s church to take some photos on one of those warm days a while back. I was taking them for fun, he was taking them because he had to write a 15 page paper for his architecture class. *snicker*. While he borrowed my wide angle (it was the least I could do after I talked him into the Nikon D300 that I know he doesn’t use enough), I walked around with my little, but favorite, 50mm.

What is that, velvet? (sorry had to say it!)

Either Baby S liked me and was totally comfortable with me putting him in lots ‘o bendy poses or he was just totally bored by me and decided to sleep the session away. Either way, he was so out that this was the quickest newborn session I’ve ever had. And if he was really bored, I’m not offended. That’s what I’m going for. Bored newborn = fast session, less poo, sleepiness. Photographer girl all sweaty with crazy hair is so not as fun or interesting to hang out with as snuggly mom and dad who have the good stuff in the bottle.
