My sweet niece Raya…I was SO looking forward to meeting her and she made us wait so long! But she made the wait worthwhile by being absolutely adorable. Her session did not go as usual for me-because she decided at only 5 days old to sleep 7 hours straight the night before and her mommy loved it. But that meant she was NOT interested in sleeping for her session! Since she’s family she got to stay for lunch and we tried again in the afternoon with much better luck. Introducing darling Raya!

Babies who won’t sleep like to wave their arms around, eat their fists and make lots of funny faces…which made for a lot of laughs during the pictures with her mommy and daddy. Not my typical stuff, but hey, Jordan had to go to work and some images are better than nothing right?!

I don’t usually use tutus in my photography but Maggie makes and sells these, and so this was the perfect opportunity for us to get some cute shots for her! I love how they turned out!
