He is just 1 week old! A couple days ago I had a very special photo shoot with this darling baby boy and his parents.

Such a huge "awww"-factor to these!!!
Aren't they precious when they are this very, very, VERY young?

I really like your sheepskin (?)-lined basket for these photos. And I much, much, much appreciate the fact that all of you were ok to have his photos taken in the nude. Clothes just would not work, I think.

The second and third are my very favourites here.

#1 and #3 are my favorites. I just wish that rubber ball was removed from the first one. The window lighting is really nice.

Wow that last shot before the thumbnails is just beautiful. I love how the baby's skin is all wrinkled up, the look on the mothers face, all just so perfect!

Thanks everyone. I kind of like the ball in the first one because its almost like he is dreaming of playing outside one day. I might try and edit it out just to see how it looks.

Great shots, I'd love to work with newborns someday...I get no more chances with my own kids. I agree with La Foto, newborn shots look better in the nude. Clothes usually look so awkward on such young babies.

nice job, i love 1 and 6. he's a cutie, i think his wrinkles are funny in number 4.

thanks again ladies. I find it interesting how only women have responded to this thread but I guess we like new baby photos more.

I just showing the shots with the family and they were so please. This was my first newborn shoot ever, aside from my own and even then i didn't take enough

(too late now since my youngest is now 7 months LOL) Being that this was my very first new born shoot i was glad it turned out as well as it did.
