Allison Phillips | newborn session

We like our newborns to be asleep during their session, but Allison was afraid she might miss something. She was bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for the whole thing.

Allison's mom is Christa Phillips (dad is Andy Phillips). Christa an OB Nurse at Northeast Regional Medical Center. She was so laid back about me contorting her daughter for some of our poses. "Babies aren't all that brittle," Christa said. "In fact, they're pretty flexible. They're used to being bound up in a ball."

This first shot makes me laugh and tear up at the same time! It's like I caught her in the middle of singing a high note. Love, love love it!

In the last picture where Allison is laying on a tree stump, the green scarf was made by our 8-year-old friend, Bennett! It worked perfectly! Thanks again, Bennett!
