Rock a bye baby!


In a word: Unexpected

The experience: Statistically, like most things in life, not every session will go flawlessly. Most of the time a normal session will have a few small hiccups, but you can depend on that and as a photographer, we’ve learned to circumvent the normal problems that we face. However, this session falls into a different category altogether. Haha! But it’s okay. Little Marcus is new to the world, and unfortunately he’s not adjusting to baby life as well as we wish he would. Marcus is colicky, so he has a few bad days every now and then. Unfortunately, this was one of those days. He preferred the safety of his momma’s arms over my baskets, boxes, and crates. I can sympathize with that, there are days I'd rather relax in the comfort of my bed and favorite quilt than actually work. Plus it was scorching hot and miserable, even the happiest baby would have been irritated by the heat. He did give me the benefit of about ten shots, and those ten were pretty awesome. His big brother and sister were so cute trying to calm him and hold him. They constantly checked in on him to make sure he was okay. He is a complete doll and I fell in love with his wavy black hair. Since the day didn’t go as planned, I hope to see this little feller again soon.
