I love photographing little kids and capturing their personality artistically. Often after I photograph a wedding, the new couple will have kids and continue to come in for portraits of their new babies over the years. It’s really neat photographing families and seeing them grow over the years.
And with little babies, because they change so fast, my favorite way to photograph them is to create an album of them growing up. I start with a newborn shoot, then continual shoots for the first year so that by one year old, I have a series of beautiful images to design an album. The design is a beautiful collection of art that shows personality. I know these albums will be cherished for decades.
Little Megan is one of these babies I’ve been able to see grow, and photograph all along her journey. I have to share her 7 month old shoot because I’ve been enamored by how cute and adorable she is.
Megan came in with wavy, wispy hair, cute round cheeks, and a big smile. We set her up in the studio with high-key, white on white. The above portrait with her propped up on her arms, is one of my favorites of the shoot. Her expression is perfect.
As you can see, she had a great time wiggling around, smiling, and pulling faces at me.
I did a series of her sitting in my white chair too, and these various expressions worked really well together as a series. Aside from capturing her personality, you can see her little feet and toes,
