Elijah {Mount Vernon Newborn Photographer}

I have to admit that going into this session I was a bit nervous. Elijah is 6 weeks old, which is old for a newborn session. I wasn’t sure if we would get anything or not. Generally newborn sessions are best when done in the first two weeks of baby’s life. That’s when they are move sleepy and bendable. Once you get them to sleep they are much more tolerable of you moving them around. After 2 weeks, babies can be harder to get to sleep and keep them asleep. My fears for today’s session were unfounded. Little Elijah was a perfect baby. He slept so well! He even put up with us trying to put him into things like football helmets and boots. 🙂

This one is a total out-take that I just had to include because the look on his face just cracks me up! At this point he had had enough of us putting him into things. 🙂
