I recently captured this adorable newborn, John. Isn’t he yummy. It isn’t often that I catch newborns wide awake, so this was a special treat. He wasn’t as in love with me, as I him, so I worked fast, and I think the photos turned out well in the end.

I’ve said it before, but it bears repeating, newborns are not usually known for their clear complexion. This can become a distraction in a photo and sometimes a disappointment to the parents. For this reason, I find it’s most flattering to photography newborns in black and white.
