It was a pleasure to have this sweet baby boy and his parents in my photography studio a couple of months ago. Little Roman was excited to come into the world and was born very early–at 28 weeks gestation. It’s always a little scary when a baby comes so soon before his due date. Roman had to spend a few months in the NICU where the doctors and nurses could look after him. They did an amazing job and released this happy and healthy baby boy from the hospital right before Halloween (he wasn’t even due until December!)
When mom and dad brought Roman to my studio for his newborn photography session, it was still 5 weeks before his original due date. Although he had grown a lot since his birth (he was born at only 2.05 pounds and 14.35 inches) he was still so tiny! Roman’s claim to fame is that he is the smallest baby I have ever had in my photo studio. What a sweetheart!
I was so careful as I posed this delicate little guy for newborn pictures. He did a wonderful job for me and is such a handsome boy!
Roman’s daddy is musical, so we decided to include a little musical flair in this newborn photo shoot, using dad’s guitar. Everyone wants their photography session to be personal and unique. A great way to do that is to bring a special prop from home that reflects parents’ interests or hobbies.
Welcoming a baby into the world is such an exciting time, and I was grateful to be a small part of it in my role as newborn photographer. I loved meeting Roman and taking his baby pictures. Congratulations to mom and dad on their beautiful baby boy!
