Baby Tyler!

Meet little Tyler at nine days old! I know I say this a lot, but I really love photographing infants! Tyler's mom received a portrait session as a gift from one of her friends before he arrived, and I was excited when I got the call that the little guy was here! We spent a long morning photographing Tyler in their home, and I got some sweet shots. I have never had such a young baby stay awake for an entire two and a half hour portrait session, until Tyler! He was awake and alert the whole time, and would look right in the camera! Amazing. He definitely had preferences and would let us know about them, but was also able to settle in for some really cute shots. I also loved watching Megan interact with him, it was so tender and precious. The shots of the two of them together are some of my favorites.

They were still waiting on little Tyler's furniture to come in, so they hadn't gotten to hang his name on the wall yet, but I loved it against this shaggy Carolina blue rug!

So why not put actual Tyler next to it?


Speaking of Carolina blue, I think Tyler won't have any choice about his allegiances :-)

Sweet advice for the new mom!


Pretty blue eyes!

And we had to get a shot of his little jack-o-lantern outfit... it was October afterall.

We were taking photos by a big window, and Tyler was fascinated by the light and the trees outside.





Tyler has a perfect swirl in his hair.

Whenever he would get upset, Megan would be right there, cooing and talking to him and he would calm right down. So sweet to see him respond to mom like that.




This may be the only shot with his eyes closed, but I'm not sure it wasn't just a blink :-)


A little love from mom...

...and all is right with the world again.





And to end.. an almost smile. :-)


Megan and Mark, it was such a privilege to photograph sweet little Tyler! I hope that you guys will enjoy the pictures, and have fun remembering how small he once was! Have fun with that sweet little guy!
