I’ve been photographing this precious girl monthly since she was inside her Momma’s tummy. This is the 11th session I’ve done with her – part of a Year in the Life series we’re doing to commemorate her first year of life – not including the maternity session I did before she was born. I’m not gonna lie. I get attached. I’m starting to feel the sadness that our year is almost up!
She’s such a sweet baby and so very tolerant with all our crazy ideas. We put her in an Easter basket at 3 months, a baby swing at 6 months, a kiddie pool at 8 months, a tutu and pearls at 9 months and this month we put her in an apple crate (which she was fine with) and inside a pumpkin (which she was NOT okay with – see below, lol). We’ve captured her first bites of cereal and her relationships with her older siblings and with her Momma and with her Daddy. We’ve done a little bit of it all. Her first birthday is just around the corner and I’ll be there to capture that too, and then I’ll send her off into the world… a grown woman… lol. Just kidding. But it does feel that way, just a little bit.
Here she is, 10 Months old.
I’ve loved this pumpkin pants idea since seeing it somewhere online last year. Nicole worked so hard to prep it for us and it looked SOOO CUTE! But alas, we found the limits of Felicity’s tolerance. She hated it! For the record, hollowed out pumpkins, no matter how you try to clean and dry them (and this one was super clean inside!), they still feel cold and unnatural. The next time I attempt this, I’ll make sure to cover up the inside with felt or keep the baby fully dressed. Poor girl, hehe. But she’s still as cute as a button, even in her state of teary-eyed revolt. Still a cute little pumpkin, no matter how you dice it. 🙂
We’re currently looking for Year in the Life babies for 2013. If you’re pregnant or have a child between the ages of 0-3 and are interested in a commemorative series of sessions, CONTACT ME soon. I’ll love to chat with you about options for your little one. Spots for these types of sessions are extremely limited.
