Norah | newborn

Norah Loretta was only 1 week old when we did this shoot. It was a beautiful winter day and the light pouring into Marianne’s home was gorgeous. Norah stayed up the entire session but I may have helped her sleep through the night;) Marianne and I have known each other our entire lives—our mom’s met in carpool for our older siblings—and so it was awesome to see Marianne become a mom. I knew she would be a great mom because she has always had an interest in little ones and even runs her own daycare in her home in Amesbury. If anyone is looking for a fantastic child care provider be sure to contact her—she is accepting new kids in a couple of months. I photographed Marianne and Mat’s wedding (long before blogging so I don’t have a blog post of it) and it was great to also photograph this new milestone in their lives:) Congratulations to the both of you!

mom and baby…always one of my favorite shots!

oh, this sweet face.

This was a great yawn:)

Baby feet.

Isn’t she beautiful? I see a total mix between mom and dad here.

Marianne loved this shot on the back of the camera…I love it posted here:)


I swear she is smiling here. Can you believe how awake and aware she is?

Daddy’s hands.


This is a curtain actually. We had some fun doing this and she really didn’t mind it too much at first:)
