There is just something different about that “last” baby. They seemed to be babyed longer, snuggled just a little harder, given just a tad bit more patience and seen through different eyes. I think it’s because after having your first, or more than one, baby, most of us are in “survival mode”. Where it is stressful and new and goes by wayyyy fast. When that “last” baby comes around though, you already know those things like that babies don’t break quite as easily. But most importantly, you know just how much a thief time is and that sometimes its okay to snuggle them just a little longer, or sniff the top of their heads as a newborn because sadly, the smell fades.
I think that is the biggest appeal for me as a newborn and baby photographer. I have the experience as a momma that my baby’s sweet smell fades just a little. And they only have one first smile, first birthday, and first photoshoot. I always strive to beautifully photograph those moments that are fleeting yet beyond beautiful.
Contact me to set up your newborn or baby photoshoot because I would adore to have the privilege!!
