Baby photography is not as easy as it might seem. The best time to take pictures is after their feeding, but then of course you have to pair that with good natural daylight. I wanted to do this shoot in a lifestyle genre of photography as opposed to a really posed baby shoot, where the baby is asleep in a flowery white hammock in a cute hat.

The new year lights in the background add a warm holiday layer to the photo. I made them out of focus on purpose.

A close up of Keira’s calm demeanor.

The red hat. I think it was hand-knit by a coworker of the mother.

Bath tiiiiiiiime!
