Photo Session by Mommy





One antique store, ten blankets, tons of diaper changes and four feedings later this is what we ended up with. I took the pictures and my mom did absolutely everything else. We both learned a lot, especially how to tie a stinkin' knot in the stork sling (we still didn't get exactly what we wanted). I'm an amateur but I love it, especially when I get to use my mom's camera! Thanks Dad!





















 Thanks Jess for the darling outfit!!!

So freakin' cute. I LOVE the ones on the antique chair and I actually really like the one where it's just the baby on the white background. They are SO freakin' cute. LOVE THEM!

those are gorgeous mel! My favorite is actually that last shot with baby looking up at the camera. Its so rare to get a really great shot of them with their little eyes open when they're teeny. LOVE THEM.

Lilly Faith is just beautiful like the rest of the family. You are a budding photographer, Melanie. Of course you come by it rightly with your mother. Thanks to her, we have many great photos at great times in our life. So glad I found your blog to see your beautiful new little girl.

Mel,
They are WAY GOOD!! I don't know what your talking about. You need to start a photography business and I'm being dead serious. Some of my most favorite pictures are the ones you took of Ella. Lily looked like a little doll in the pics. Wish I could have been there. (:
