One of the "perks" if you will, that I found from doing photography is getting back in touch with old friends! I haven't seen my friends Dave and Erika for quite some time but with the advent of a newborn in their lives it gave us a good excuse to see each other again! It's nice to be able to catch up, and get reacquainted with what's going on in our lives. Not to mention that it gave us an opportunity to take photos that will be cherished for years to come of their beautiful newborn, Eden Carmela! Here are some of my favorite photos from our time together, enjoy!

Harper Grace Kerrigan!! She's the little bundle of joy that recently arrived in this world bringing happiness, gladness of heart and I'm sure just a *few* sleepless nights to the proud parents of Erin and Jim! We set aside an hour or two one Saturday afternoon and captured some precious moments! Moments between Harper & Mom, Harper & Dad and some images with all three!
We were able to get some great outdoor and indoor shots in a few different settings from the living room to the babies room to the backyard. Harper was pretty easy going that day and seemed fascinated by me taking her picture! Check out a few of the images from that day!

About a week ago some friends of mine asked if I would photograph their newborn baby. They had hired a hospital photographer for photographs right after the delivery, but the photos were way overpriced for the quality so they wanted something better. We spent about an hour and a half together and it was my first time photographing a newborn but we had some really good shots come from our time together!
During our time we had about 1 or 2 "costume" changes and a couple different settings for photos. The little baby was pretty easy to work with, she was a little grouchy whenever she was away from momma for too long. That was challenging but I was able to grab some fun shots before she started crying! Whenever she did cry we would let her fall asleep in her mother's arms and then lay her back down for some more photographs before she woke up. Maybe that's kinda cruel but she'll appreciate the photos when she's older... Right… :)
