Patrick was already one month old at the time of his newborn session due to some time spent in the NICU, but he rocked his session- such a sweet little guy! I love to try something fresh and new every session- it doesn’t always work well, but occasionally I discover something new I adore. That’s the case with this first image. He’s not actually up in the air- he’s on his back with mom’s hands surrounding him, but it almost looks like he is. I also love the way it showcases his tiny size. You can really see just how small he is when those hands are right next to him. Something I’ll be doing again!
