The love that a newborn, unbeknown to him or her, brings into the world is precious. There is a certain silent calm that the soothing of a small child brings into the studio. I’ve always enjoyed photographing newborns. In my past work I was mainly concerned with the child his/herself, but lately have found joy in bringing in mom/dad to the portraits. The size comparison of child to adult results in something very precious. For example this first print with baby fitting snug into daddy’s hands.
