From the Minds of Babies

I always wondered what could be going through the minds of babies when I photograph them. As I was editing a couple more of Turner's photos this weekend I made up a short little story. I know I know, I think I was sitting at the computer way too long because making up stories in my head is just not the norm for me.

Once upon a time, in a land far far away lived a 10 lb newborn baby named Turner Wren. Turner liked to sleep . . . a lot.


But suddenly he peacefully awoke and started thinking about his future and what he wanted to be when he grew up.


"This is a very big decision." thought Turner, "I think I'll need to sleep on it."


So Turner went back to sleep and dreamt about the future and what it held for him. He dreamt of becoming a firefighter and saving lives. He also dreamt of becoming a Pediatrician and helping little babies just like himself. And finally, Turner's last dream he dreamt about somebody that he knew he wanted to become like. Turner awoke and yelled, "When I grow up, I want to become big and strong just like my Dad!"

This picture's so cute! I love that it looks like he's flexing his muscles! He must work out at the baby gym. I'm kidding!

'lil BIG

Today I got the opportunity to meet and photograph baby Turner Wren (I like to call him 'lil BIG). He is the newest addition to my friend Bobby's family. Turner came into the world weighing a whopping 10 lbs 4 oz! That is so crazy! Bobby said that when he was born the nurses would call him "The Ten Pounder". I think the name fits him well!

Turners face in this picture cracks me up. He was probably thinking, "Who the heck is this lady?"

Cohen

This is Baby Cohen about a little over a month ago. He's gotten so much bigger since then! They say babies grow fast, but it's like he's growing at twice the speed! He was so calm and mellow during the shoot. Thanks Cohen for making it so easy and fun for me!

Sam Thomas

This little guy belongs to my very good friend Jill. His name is Sam Thomas and I think the name fits him very well! He was born about a month ago and is growing very fast. Sam makes the cutest little faces and I had so much fun photographing him. Here are just a couple of pictures from the session.
