Newborns are one of my favourite subjects to photograph but they are by far the toughest. You work on their terms, their agenda. You can't bribe them. You can't tell jokes to make them laugh. They may poop on you. They may spit up on you. You are at their mercy.

This little guy with big blue eyes was a charmer (and thankfully did not do any of the above to me). He won me over in the first few minutes but then he put me to the test. We had a long shoot and I thank his mom for being so patient. Little Tulley you are a lucky wee man - so loved. Every mother loves their child but you sometimes see a connection that goes beyond... I saw it here.

The most amazing...

big brown eyes, chubby little toes (I can never resist tiny feet) and a way of getting around that put a smile on my face - one of those make-shift crawl/walk kind of things that kids this age invent to get them from a to b... pure genius : )

This little gal kept me on my toes and brightened my day. Was a pleasure meeting this family and seeing how they adore their little princess.
