This cute little guy is baby Nicolas! He belongs to my photographer friend, Laurel Serra, and was only a couple days old in these images.

After Nicolas was born, I attended a posing workshop held by another photographer friend, Lindsay Brynn. I really wanted to see Laurel and the baby, but it was a lot of fun to see how Lindsay does things with her set-up, since I shoot in a more photojournalistic style when I take pictures of newborns, rather than the more posed style that Lindsay is known for. While I still love shooting in my own style, it’s definitely a lot of fun to learn new techniques!

I was looking at these images this week and thinking about our own little boy on the way! I’m be 31 weeks pregnant this week, so there are exactly 2 months left until I’m due. We are busy getting everything prepared for the baby and getting more excited as the days pass by — especially Zachary — he is sooooo looking forward to being a big brother! And I know he will be a great one.

There’s still so much left to complete on my to-do list, but we are getting there… and I can’t wait until I, too, will have a squishy and adorable new baby to hold!
