Baby Clemens-Newborn Portraits-Memphis, TN





Baby Clemens…how cute is she!

Since being here in Memphis, there has been one little girl that has shown up often on this blog.  Well that little girl now has a sister.  So that makes 2 little girls that may show up often on this blog!

This was my first newborn session.  I really enjoyed it, but I learned some things.  A newborn session is a lot different from any other kind of photo session.  I thought, because she’s so small and just a baby, she would be easy to control and photograph exactly how I wanted.  WRONGO! She was completely in control. She ate when she wanted to eat, she slept or didn’t sleep when she wanted, spit up when she wanted…whatever it was…I was on her time schedule.   But it was great.  It’s kind of a freeing feeling knowing that you can do what you can to make her comfortable and get some good photos, and that’s it. 

I can’t get enough of baby Clemens, though.  She’s so funny! Her parents sometimes refer to her as a warthog because the sounds she makes are unreal! Lots of grunting going on.

It’s exciting to see how much she’s grown already and I hope to see much more of that for years to come.

Enjoy,
