New baby at home - family photo-session in St Andrews

Baby Ames. I met him a bit later than planned - he arrived shortly before Christmas and holidays intervened. His birth story is an unusual one too, quite an adventure.

These first days and weeks with new baby pass like a blur, in haze of nappies and survival. There is so much to do when you adjust to life with your new tiny family member - nobody cancelled cooking and cleaning and playing with the big brother, taking some time for yourself. Sleeping. And you have this little human to cuddle with and get to know, and enjoy this time before the first set of clothes becomes too small.

We started this photo-session in the morning - it takes time to photograph young baby, especially if you want to have it in real and relaxed way. Ames was the one leading us, and we made lots of breaks when he wanted to nurse or just to cuddle. There is nothing artificial or posed here. Just moments from the day as it unfolded - with play and fun, tender and quiet and crying moments, little details like those fingers and toes and first tiny baby bonnet.

Here are some of my favourites from this photo-session.
