This is dear little Cavalli. He’s just 3 weeks old, and nothing short of divine. I took these photographs of him at his home, all in natural light. He was such a good boy for his session, and spent most of the time dreaming sweet baby dreams. I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to photograph a little angel like this one. My own boys are getting really big now (4 and 7 years old) and sometimes I really miss the baby days. That’s why I’m always so thrilled when I get to spend time with a precious little baby like Cavalli.
Asleep in Mummy’s arms. Cavalli’s mother Alex initially didn’t want to be in any of the photographs, but I asked her to reconsider. I think there is no place more natural or beautiful to photograph a newborn than in Mother’s arms. I bet when this little baby is a boy, then a man, these will be his favourites. I just know it…..
I’m always on the lookout for new rugs and blankets to use when photographing babies. I had a little shopping spree this week, and found a furry cream rug and this beautiful blue woven blanket. I just love the texture and organic look of this blanket. Cavalli seemed to like it too, though it left blue fluff everywhere. I think it needs a few more washes!
This is Cavalli’s gorgeous big brother, Jack…..and this image makes me go all gooey. I have 2 boys myself, so the relationship between brothers is something close to my heart.
I decided to include a few images of Jack on his own. He is such a gorgeous boy, and oh my…..those eyes!
Have a great weekend!
