Expressive hands…

I just love what hands can say within a portrait.  If the hands are all by themselves, like the first image below, you can tell a full story of the 4 generations represented here of all these wonderful women and women to be…Grandma, Mom, daughters, granddaughter and great-grand daughter.  Then you have all seen the ring photographs of the bride and groom where it tells the story of their new life beginning together and what the rings symbolize.  There are other types of images, like the full image of a group where the family members are all touching each other in a very loving, relaxed way.  And the daddy holding his newborn son, the size of the dad’s hands so protective and just a peek of the newborn’s tiny hands   One of my new favorites is of this image below of a young girl.  The pose, the touch of makeup and the expression all speak of a budding teenager, but not quite.  The soft child like hands tell that this young woman has a little while to go before she truly enters the next stage of her life.  Some of my favorite images.

Sweet Infant Portraits…

Dad and Mom brought in sweet little “G” when she was only 9 days old!  Love these little ones…so perfect and darling.  This little one wanted to stay wide awake for her photo shoot, unusual for a newborn.  So lots of eyes open for mom and dad.  But we managed to get a few sleeping ones with Dad holding her all warm and cozy!  This is your sneak peek – lots more to come!  See you on Saturday to preview the rest.  Enjoy!

Sweet little baby toes…{Baby Photographer Palm Harbor}

When babies are new to this wonderful world, they are so precious and perfect.  I like to do what I call “Precious Parts”.  We create wonderful portraits of all their little fingers and toes, their sweet little lips and their tiny ears, the back of the neck and all those wonderful kissable parts.  Take a look at this little one who came in to have portraits created last week.  She is just gorgeous!

Smiling in his sleep…{Palm Harbor Newborn Photographer}

Little “I” came in today, 8 days new and cute as a button.  He was asleep at the start and we began in the heated studio to keep him warm and worked from there.  He was so cute when he was just getting settled, he smiles in his sleep!  Mom and Dad say that he does that all the time.  I can’t wait to get to know him when he gets older if he is already that happy!  Take a look.   This is your sneak peek, Heidi and Paul.  Enjoy.  See you next week! (And another big thanks to my friend Rebecca, who knits these ADORABLE hats!)

Pretty in pink…and purple…{Palm Harbor Newborn Photography}

Little “G” came in today and had her first portraits created.  She was such a doll baby!  So tiny!  The first image was actually an out take where Dad is trying to calm her down and get her to relax, but she is giving him such a precious look, I couldn’t resist posting it.  We went on to photograph her in a purple pettiskirt and flower headband and then on to a wonderful new pink hat.  My friend, Rebecca offered to make a new hat for me to use and I got it just in time for little “G” to model.  Thanks so much, Rebecca!  And the head on the hands pose…well, what else can I say about that!!!?  Enjoy!
