William Newborn Session | Culpeper, Virginia Photographer

WELCOME into this world little cousin William!!!! So excited to see another male Messick in the family to continue on the name. And what a delight it was to meet him only after 7 days! Also, it was a great excuse for my mom, sister and I to meet up with my cousins! 🙂 I have had inquiries for newborn portraits, but only offer them to family and close friends, as I wish I could offer it to anyone … but I think it is important as I grow in the industry to keep narrowing down my specialization to what I want to do for the long run. Newborn photography is a specialty and I give all newborn photographers so much credit for doing what they do! Haha! But I definitely do not mind doing a favor for my family! 🙂

Anyways, enjoy these pictures from my baby cousin’s session! MEET WILLIAM and my fabulous cousins! 🙂 Yay!

She is ready for the session! Loved her enthusiasm!!!

🙂

What a cutie pieeeeee!!!!

And this is where things … well, got interesting…

This explains it all… Lol! An absolute PRICELESS moment that I’m sure will stay in the family for the rest of history. Bahahah!

Awww, William was so good for his session!

Precious family!

Love this family!

She is ADORABLE!

Cute!

Liking the pose! 😉 Lol!
