We were all home today and the sun (kinda) peeked through the clouds, so it was a perfect day for a photo shoot. I've been trying to get to this all week as I'm excited to get started on Mia's birth announcements.
After doing a few of these in the past, I've discovered that the fundamental ingredients in a successful newborn photo shoot are:
(1) Someone to help me so that the baby is positioned correctly and doesn't roll off the couch. And not just ANYONE will do. This is a highly specialized job. This person needs to be patient and needs to understand my need for perfection. They also need to be willing to sit under a heavy fleece blanket in the sun for a rather long time.
(2) Patience
(3) A south-facing window
(4) A sunny day
(5) A cooperative baby
Well, all of the ingredients were present today... except for #5! I guess we'll try again in a few days.

Look at Mia's cute rolls on her back!
I love the black and white look.

Wish I were there to "play". I know how it is when the only other adult in the house doesn't want anything to do with photos.
Can't wait to see the results next time. Good luck!
I think it takes a special grandma to help make it successful.
