mommy, alexis.
i woke up the morning of this session and this idea was forming in my head.
and i love these two shots i got out of her.
and ive always loved the whole family in bed with the newborn shot. you spend so much time in bed with a new baby…
- Ooooo...that shot of the baby in the chalk drawing F is so cool...and the pictures of the new baby belly are so sweet. You are so freaking talented it blows me away. I wish I had an eighth of your photo taking abilities.
- Brilliant Tara!!! LOVE it!
- Those are just beautiful! I love to watch your blog because the pictures are lovely and you have some great ideas. I'd love to absorb even just a teeny bit of your talent!
- O.M.G. These pictures... I remember the pregnancy photos... LOVED THEM! This shoot is the icing on the cake! What a dreamy baby. LOVE her! We've 5 children, and if you asked me a year ago I would have told you that I could not possibly fathom having to entertain the thought of another baby. Hard to admit that, but SO true. Right now this very minute? I can't fathom having the time or patience to responsibly care for a baby. BUT, that does not dismiss the fact that I love them. OH MY GOD. I *heart* babies. I cannot be in the presence of a newborn, crying, and not cry myself. Or wonder, is there something I could do to help settle the baby? Should I offer? All that said, I find comfort in knowing that I will, inevitably with 5 children, will be a grandma. And you know what? I'm going to be one hell of a grandma. You will love me.
- LOVE the baby in the F. I so love new baby shots. Remember me crying on the phone to you? I am so glad you came that day. :)
- Ditto on the brillant! Wonderful, Tara! :)
- Awesome pictures! Love the F picture.
- I can't believe how moving these pictures are. They TOTALLY bring back the memories of those first days with the tiny new person in your life. I've never felt that so strongly from a photo. Tearing up here. Almost make me want another little one, but the three I've got will have to do.
- WOW! Just when I think I've seen it all....geez Tara, the pink chalked "F" and babe is a beyond words! awesome...........
- Ok Tara that first picture is one of the cuttest that I have ever seen, brilliant! corinnexxx
