I never had photos taken with Alice when she was fresh out in the world - partly because I wasn't in my photogenic prime (still lots of pregnancy pounds to shed) and partly because the thought of paying someone else for something I do is a hard thing for me to get over. So this time around I ignored the critical commentary in my head (rolls and lines and chubby face, oh my!) and dialed in the manual camera settings for my sister to take some. I was not going to let a non-existent budget or low self-esteem thwart documenting this season for me and our new little Milo.
But poor, poor Lyndsay! I'm just a little...er, particular. I dictated a running laundry list of things to keep in mind while shooting, and she did a great job. After some editing, I now have sweet, beautiful photos of me and my baby boy.
THANK YOU, Lyn!
My favorites...
Milo, I love you.
I'll etch these moments on my heart til the other side of eternity.
So glad God gave you to us.
xoxo
Mama
p.s. he's wrapped in a scarf Lyndsay made for herself out of the softest flannel fabric ever...thanks for letting us borrow it!
Second from the bottom...his little eyes peeking at Mama...be still my heart!
ReplyDeleteI know!!! "Precious" doesn't even begin to describe that photo to me...
