Sweet Olivia {A New Baby Session}

A few weeks ago I had the wholehearted pleasure of photographing brand new baby Olivia and her family. 

I've said it before, but this little baby was the platonic ideal of a baby: beautiful soft skin, big wide eyes, chubby baby cheeks, and the easiest disposition. I mean, this kid is even gorgeous when she cries. 

I love photographing babies and their mothers. I have an obsession with liminal periods. I love the raw emotion, the newness, the strangeness of transitions, and the beauty of a new life. 

With a baby and her mother, you don't have to search very hard for the beauty. Its there in the way the arms cradle and comfort, the pure adoration of a new mother's gaze, the softness of skin and the roundness of cheek. We all know these details will soon fade, so it was such an honour to get to capture these memories for this gorgeous family.
