Right after Liam was born, Leah and Ted asked me if I would take newborn photos of him. I was excited but nervous – I haven’t been keeping up with my photography skills (beyond landscapes) and I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to capture their little sweetie well. But they were insistent and very relaxed about it, so a couple weeks after he was born I got to capture the little guy.
Because he was born on St. Patrick’s Day (and just a week before Easter), Leah had some props she wanted him to wear. Liam was…not so sure about them.
Pretty sure if he were a real Leprechaun, he’d have cursed us.
He also wasn’t a real big fan of the bunny outfit, but it did lead to one of my favorite baby expressions ever!
I mean. He is judging us hard.
But can you blame us? Look at this little butt.
It felt good to get behind my camera again. I’ve been so busy and overwhelmed lately that I’ve neglected to make time for the things I really enjoy, like photography and crafting. I’m thankful Leah and Ted gave me a push toward picking up my camera, and even more thankful that I had a snuggly little subject like Liam…even if he’s probably going to hate us someday for putting him in bunny ears.

LOL at his expression! These photos were a great way to start the day.
Rachael says:
That bunny ear picture of him could pay for his college! You have to submit it in baby photo contests. Seriously!
Glenda says:
Adorable pictures… but clearly he wasn’t have it!

Linnae says:
What a sweetheart! You did a great job capturing his little baby personality … get behind that camera more – your talent is amazing! I can see why you want to eat him up. Please share with us Annie’s response to these pictures because I’m sure they were as great as the photos themselves.
Katrina says:
Great photos, and such an adorable baby boy! I can relate to not having the time for certain hobbies and interests. I can’t even remember the last time I did any scrapbooking, and my Canon camera has been collecting dust.
