I consider newborn shoots a real honor because this is usually such a strange and magical time for parents as they get to know their new babies, so when the parents let me into their world during this special time I always feel very privileged.
The gorgeous babe pictured here is destined to be a supermodel for three very good reasons: 1) she was born long and leggy. 22 inches is long for any baby, but for a baby girl that’s very long. 2) Her mom is Brazilian and we all know that Brazilian means supermodel, think Gisele. 3) I discovered that her dad, much like myself, is a big fan of Zoolander. We were all cracking up doing our versions of Blue Steel and Ferrari, which made for a super fun shoot.
My favorite shot is the one above with the two new parents laughing. It’s pure joy and happiness, and is a window into their fun, easy-going personalities. We had so much fun together I almost forgot I had never met them before.
I expect this little girl to be on the cover of magazines soon as she definitely seems ready for her close up. I only hope she’ll remember her first photographer.
