Happy New Year!

Sending wishes of health & happiness in 2011!  And a special wish to a dear friend of mine who will be ringing in the New Year in hospital.  You are in my thoughts tonight... hopefully these images will shine a little light in your "cave."

Early for the Holidays

This little bug wasn't due to arrive until the New Year!  Guess he didn't want to miss out on the joy of the holidays... that, or the presents!

Merry Christmas

Mr. T // Burlington Baby Photographer

Time to fess up... 9 week olds are difficult to photograph... usually.  Mr. T is quite possibly the biggest exception to the rule.  Sure, there were tears... there always are (sometimes regardless of age!).  Sure, he made me work for it... they always do.  But, oh my, was it ever worth it.  Mr. T is a natural.  9 weeks old and already owning "Blue Steel."

Squish!!! // Waterdown Newborn Photographer

Isn't she just the squishiest, most adorable little girl? - aside from a moment you'll see below ; )  is that what I think it is?

and the moment in question?  cheeky little thing!

Prince H || Burlington Newborn Photography

If you've been reading my blog long enough, you might remember me talking about my dear friend, hip hopping C.

Well, hip hopping C had a new baby!  And I got to photograph him on Day 3!

Pardon the very lame rhyme.  I am so happy for C and her family.  I'm also AMAZED by how quickly she bounced back after giving birth.  And not at all surprised by how effortlessly she transitioned to mother of two.  As if Prince H has always been there...

Peek-a-Boo, I'm smiling at you! || Hamilton Baby Photography

It's been a while since I had a 10 week old in front of my camera but I  don't think I've ever met such a smiley one!  Mr. A was a bit camera shy at first, loved covering his face with his hands, though it's entirely possible that he's advanced enough to have been engaging me in a little game of peek-a-boo!  But, he was full of smiles for his mommy and the jingle bells!

Pretty In Watermelon! || Burlington Newborn Photographer

A few more from Princess H...

Princess H || Burlington Newborn Photographer

I could have spent all day with this little beauty!  She was such a delight - as were her mom and grandmother - and so clearly adored... how could you not fall head-over-heels?  I'm sure I won't be able to resist posting a few more from our session... stay tuned!

Mr. Stretch || Burlington Newborn Photographer

This little monkey wanted nothing to do with curling up.  Mr. Stretch just wanted to stretch... once even squirming his way out of the cocoon.  But, how can you resist those beautiful big blue eyes?

Perfect Little Man... || Dundas Newborn Photographer

... Well, his mom might disagree after what he did to her shirt : )  Mr. B exudes little boyishness... so, handsome!  Here are a few of my favourites from our session.

Inspired by Etsy | Cambridge Newborn Photographer

Not that I need much inspiration when my "models" are so darn CUTE!!!  Last month, I went on a bit of an Etsy shopping spree and have been waiting patiently to put my great finds to work.  If you've never shopped Etsy I HIGHLY recommend it.  But, consider yourself warned it's also HIGHLY addictive.

More to come from these two lovely babes... they were both so cooperative and deserving of their own spotlight!
For now, I encourage you to go exploring at www.etsy.com
