Baby, part deux

This sweet little guy is the 3rd of three boys. I have a special fondness for three boy families :-).

This was both a fun and funny photoshoot that we set up in my bright-light bedroom. It was timed for Gavin's naptime (picture: beautiful Anne Getty type sleeping angel images...), but he was quite wide-eyed, despite his tiredness. He did fall asleep a few times, but as soon as we would remove his pacifier, he'd be wide-eyed and squirmy all over again. His quite smart mommy mentioned that at home he always seems to fall asleep while she's drying her hair ... so we pulled out my hairdryer. It worked like a charm and we got cute sleeping baby pictures *without* a pacifier. :-)

Same pics, in the more traditional "storyboard" format.

my fave is him looking straight at the camera; the big one in the first montage. I love how the edges are absorbed into the light. Beautiful! Now I want to have another baby just so I can take some good pictures of them!

I love the way they are arranged. They should be framed just like that!
