October Newborn Mentoring – Seattle Newborn Photographer

Monday, December 12, 2011 4:23 pm

Had so much fun with this mentoring session – two great Canadian photographers (I always have fun listening to their accents….which they then informed me that it is ME not them, who has the accent! Cracks me up!) We had two gorgeous babies to work with that day! I really do love teaching these sessions!

First up is Tristan – he was one of the most handsome little guys I’ve ever laid eyes on! He’s the little man of a girl I graduated high school with – good to see you again Samantha!

Next up was sweet little Mariah – she was such a mellow little thing! Went from pose to pose without so much as a peep! Loved working with her for sure!

I was contacted by another local photographer to do a newborn session for the newest member of her family, little man Blake. He was a really good little sleeper…up until the end when we wanted to go for the family shot that his mama wanted so bad! We tried and tried (for 2 hours!), but he wasn’t going to budge. He was awake. And that was that!

So we decided to give it a go with him awake, and thankfully it worked! It was fun to work with another photographer, it’s always fun to talk shop with others who share the same interest and not sound like a total photog nerd! Lol! Thank you Emi for bringing your little man in – and thank you for being patient. It paid off!
