6 months of baby cuteness

A dear friend of mine who welcomed her newest addition back in January asked me to photograph her baby boy Mutasim's beautiful moments by doing monthly shoots up until he turns 12 months old. With her 2 older boys who are now very camera shy she used to take them to portrait studios to get their monthly shoots done. She didnt want to miss out on these memories with her 3rd son but with homeschooling schedules and managing an infant she needed something convenient and easily done from the comfort of her home. I was absolutely thrilled to take on the job of personal photographer of her darling little baby.

It was important for me to make each session unique in itself. I wanted to make sure I highlighted specific milestones, baby smiles and tears because every moment in those early months are a treasure to be kept. Incorporating props and different backdrops was the creative aspect of each shoot.

It has been 6 months thus far of capturing baby Mutasim's month to month growth so I decided to put together a post of some of my favorite shots of him. His eyes have so much expression and I seem to automatically drill into them in each picture. In any case I do hope you enjoy the progression of this little man's growth. He is a joy in every sense of the word and I think he is now finally warming up to "Auntie" Photographer since our monthly bond started 6 months ago.

Stay tuned for a blog on his next 6 months :)
