Meet Baby Josie

Isn’t she lovely? I’ve been looking forward to Josie’s newborn session ever since mid-December when Mike, Josie’s dad, purchased a photo session for his wife, Octavia, who was expecting a baby in March. Octavia loves photographs and a newborn photo session was, in my opinion, such a thoughtful gift that will be enjoyed for many, many, many years to come. Josie wasn’t quite three weeks old when these photos were taken and she was such a sweet and patient photo subject. Many thanks to Octavia and Mike for welcoming me into their home and choosing me to document their beautiful daughter and many thanks to Josie for making my job so easy.
