It was last year that I visited one of my oldest friends in her then-home in the Big Apple. She and her husband, some of the most humble, genuine people I’ve had the pleasure of knowing, had given birth the month prior to a sweet little baby girl named Lucy. I affectionally call her “Lucy Boo.” She was a tiny 5 pound gem and to hear her cooing and making those baby sounds was a salve which healed anything else that might have been troubling. One of my favorite little behaviors from my short time with Lucy was how she would clench her fists into these tight little balls while she was feeding. Almost as if she was saying “more please!” haha see the photo below.
Here is a long-overdue post of their newborn photos that I took. Technically she wasn’t a newborn, but at 5 pounds and one month old she was tinier than most newborns. Some of my favorites follow!
These pictures are beautiful, Bobbalina!! We had so much fun hanging out with you and sharing Lucy-Boo (who, by the way, was more comfortable in your arms than with anyone else besides us!) We were just at the museum and stood in the parking lot scrolling through, and then when we got in the car Michael said “I want to see it again” 🙂 Can’t wait to get some of these framed to decorate our home! I love the bottom right one of her hands. . .hadn’t noticed it before. Thank you SO much. I will sing your praises to high heaven for anyone looking for a photographer 😉 xxx
Thank you so much, friend 🙂 I was so glad I could capture those memories!
