Baby Amina

Eyes Wide Open tight crop, originally uploaded by Hip Mama’s Photos.

Just wanted to add this gorgeous baby to my blog. Is she not just adorable???? Its hard to believe that she is 6 weeks old! And that I actually got to get a great picture of her. A lot of photographers shy away from baby’s after they pass 2 weeks until they are about 4 months old. That period of time tends to be awkward for baby’s and they tend to produce stiff poses that aren’t the cute snuggly poses people desire out of baby photographs. I have seen other photographers swaddle so I thought what the heck! This is Amina swaddled at Monty’s Blue Plate Diner where her mama Jenny and I went for breakfast. Who says you need a big studio to get great baby pictures?!!!!
