I went to meet Abigail yesterday at her home in Nashville. Fun fact: Abigail’s mom, Jaime, and I went to middle school and high school together in Knoxville! I commented to Jaime something that I’ve been thinking about for a while– I really enjoy getting to see or hear about former classmates happily settled as adults. Furthering their education, married, successful in their career, having kids, etc. Being able to follow and keep up with so many people all around the country is definitely one of Facebook’s pluses. It was fun getting to see her and meet her precious little one. As you all have learned by now, I love figuring out who babies look like. Well, this one was pretty easy– Abigail is totally a daddy’s girl!
Abigail had no interest in sleeping for a while! She wasn’t fussy in the least, but would instead just look at me, yawn, and then look at me again while I swayed and shushed her. She eventually gave in, as you’ll see, and I put her through the paces getting a great variety of shots. Since my last newborn shoot, I had acquired a new white metal basket (a TJ Maxx/HomeGoods find!) and two new fabric backdrops, so I was excited to get to put them to use!
Jaime bought this headband and bloomer set from Etsy. So sweet!
This is a new pose I’m using, and I LOVE IT. I seriously wish I had an image like this of myself with my boys as newborns. So simple and classic.
