Mya

February 10, 2012

My niece Mya. Ah, she is so precious, but she gave me a fit trying to get newborn pictures of her! In all honesty, I sometimes struggle when shooting newborns. I feel that they are a ‘special’ subject to shoot and I don’t have a lot of the props and other things that come along with getting some of the more unique shots. And when they wiggle and cry scream like Mya did, well, that makes me struggle even more! But, I walked away (two times) wondering “did I get anything?” to come home and find that I did indeed… and that makes me happy :)

First, a few shots of her sweet nursery:

Our cousin, Katie, made these booties for her…

That cute diaper bag? Made by Monica

Adorable hat, also made by Monica

The art is by Julie

And now, Mya Nicole:

I got her totally settled at one point (unfortunately with clothes I didn’t want her in and blankets too) but since she was so relaxed, I snapped a few pictures anyway.

Then I attempted to get her undressed and into blankets/positions that I wanted…and this is what I got right away:

It is like she is say “Ohhhh, I don’t like this!” So in went the paci…

I think this is my favorite shot:

then we were back to this:

Whew.

Baby Mya (or as Bristol says “Baby I”) we love you sweet girl, hopefully one day you’ll love my camera ;)
