Welcome to the World, Baby Romel {Newborn Session}

I seriously have the most awesome clients ever! I am often humbled by their trust in my abilities to photograph huge moments in their lives. This session is a perfect example! Griselda and Phil contacted me to take photos of their newborn son, Romel, a few weeks ago.  I told them that I would love to take photos of their sweet boy, but that I don't do much newborn photography and don't own any newborn props, so another photographer might be more qualified.  I sent them a link to the only other newborn session I've done and they booked their session after one look.  All I can say is a a huge thank you for being such awesome clients, and having so much confidence in my abilities!

So, let's meet baby Romel, shall we?

This first photo is one of my favorites from the session!  Romel decided he couldn't wait to meet his parents face to face and made his grand entrance a month early, and he is so tiny!  I just love his little fingers curled around his mom and dad's...

So sweet!...

Melt!...

I just adore how happy Phil is in all of these images.  He was so excited to become a dad, and you can just see his love for his son in every photo...

Big yawn for such a little guy...

This is another favorite.  I just can't get enough of those tiny fingers...

There's just something about a mother and her baby bonding during meal time...

Those toes!...

Just look at all that hair!...

Baby lips!...

I just can't get over how tiny and perfect he is...

Neither can Phil :)...

Griselda, you are GORGEOUS!  Are you sure you just has a baby a few weeks ago?...

Starting off right, reading to him already...

That is one very loved little boy...

Griselda and Phil even went out and purchased a few props so we could do a few cute posed photos of Romel.  It did take us quite a while to get him to sleep to capture these images, but they turned out so cute it was well worth it...

Wearing Daddy's glasses.  I hope they make me as smart as he is...

I especially love this last one with Phil's records and the microphone.  Phil is a huge music fan and he's already passing his love on to his little boy.  I see many concerts together in their future!...

Phil and Griselda,  Seriously - thank you for your continued trust and for allowing me to capture these precious moments for you guys.  Congratulations on the newest addition to your family.  I can't wait to see what the future has in store for all of you.
