Newborn Photography Columbia SC | The Little Peanut Has Arrived!

February 8, 2011

peanutbasket
If you stalk the blog, you may remember this family from a few weeks ago. I was asked to shoot both a maternity session and a newborn session for this budding family. I loved working with these awesome new parents the first time around and even more the second time:) I have been so anxious to edit the pictures and put them on the blog! Now I can’t wait to meet with the family and share all of these images of their precious little man…..who was such a very good boy, despite his many many attempts to wake and tell us who is boss! It didn’t matter, because when he slept, he was so perfect and curly and delicious! The little extra work was soooooooo worth it:)

So mom and dad, thank you so much for choosing me to document this special time for you, for trusting in me, for treating me more like a friend than your photographer. I appreciate your kindness and respect so much and can’t wait to share more with you. But I hope you will be thrilled with these for now! Tell your friends and family members to check out the images and leave a little love on your blog post. If you get 35 comments from unique visitors (with their email address), you can choose your favorite image for a 5×7 print on me! If you get 50 comments, it’s an 8×10!! Enjoy:)

Nicole Ridella posted the following on February 9, 2011 at 3:26 pm.

These are so perfect Ashley – I love how tiny he looks in the ones where he is in brown wrap – especially the one with the dog. One day he will laugh seeing that he was once smaller than the dog! I also love how you incorporated his home and nursery. I think those details make the photos even more meaningful.
