Bright Eyes, Sweet Sighs and Chubby Cheeks

Meet Ms. Carolyn Lea.

What a sweetie!  I loved everything about her including the fact that her full name is a combination of both of her Grammies.  What an honor for them!  Carolyn Lea came into this world just three months ago.  She was born one month early, so she was just a little peanut.

After a little bit of time in the hospital to sunbathe under the lights, she has been going strong!  Looking at this little girl today, you would never have guessed she was born early!


Every time I do these sessions I leave with a full heart.  I absolutely love babies around this age. Carolyn Lea was a perfect example of why I feel this way.  I was enamored with her bright eyes and  inquisitive mind...


chubby cheeks, sweet sighs and pudgy piggies...


and her perfect lips really took me right back to when my girls were small. During this session, I could help but think about all of those things that are special and unique to a newborn... those things that change and disappear over a the first few months of life.  It was an honor to be there to capture some of these precious details for Carolyn's family. Look at the way she happily drapes herself over mama's shoulder for a little snuggle...

I loved the way she slept without a care in the world.


I loved seeing Carolyn streeeeeeetch...

I loved the tiny little hat she wore...


Or when she would snuggle up like this... can you feel the warmth...

look a little closer.  I can hear her sighing.  Look at those lips!  Ahhhh...so dang sweet!

 Ok... OK.... OKAY!!!!I can hear you Carolyn...
I have shared enough! Thank you for being such a perfect little sweet pea!
