I happened to see a version of this image while browsing Pinterest, and knew right away that I had to use it for my session with these new adoptive parents! With a lot of Photoshop work, I was able to use the picture of this lovely new mother holding her sleeping baby to make a shadow that looks like a pregnant version of her. I was thrilled with the final image, and it was special for the new parents and their family as well.

This darling cherub was such a cuddle bug! I couldn't get over her amazingly soft skin and tight curls, and I savored every moment I got to spend holding her and breathing in her fresh, sweet scent.

She looked just like a porcelain doll while she was sleeping! Her lips were little pink rosebuds, and her dark lashes curled softly on her cheek.

I always create a mosaic of close-up images from each newborn session, it becomes a treasured collection for the family. I can't wait for the next session!
