A while back I got a call from a very sweet new Mama in awe of her new baby and wanting to capture every bit of it before the tiny and newness of it all slipped away. I told her that normally I do not travel as far as Corvallis, and normally we only do newborn sessions with babies under 2 weeks old. But this mama, well she knew what she wanted and she talked me into it. And I am SO glad she did. The whole family was a joy to work with, and little baby T was an absolute love. Working on these images today made me smile all over again.
Here are a few of my favorites so far:
Check out little miss. Such a sweet baby. And those eyes, gah she melted me!
All the details of her room and space were tender and so thoughtfully put together. Complete with hand knit bunny made with love by mama.
Mom & Dad spent some time in South America in the peace core and had some beautiful woven scarves and blankets. I loved working them in to the precocious baby photos.
Check out that face, such a sweet little girl.
Not many 6 weeks old would let me do my normal newborn moving and handling.
After a little while little miss woke up and blessed us with her amazing eyes again. So we packet up the family and headed outside into the beautiful weather.
The families yard is also beautiful, and perfect for photos. I love this set, clearly this little girl will have no shortage of affection.
I wanted to capture some of the details of the yard too, if little miss is anything like her parents she will be spending lots of time outdoors loving nature. 
This shot might be my favorite of the whole family. š
And one last shot of sweet little baby fingers handling the lovingly made beaded necklace made by her mamaās family and friends.
Bonnie, thanks so much for convincing me to come down to Corvallis. I had a wonderful time meeting you and your sweet family. Your little lady is quite the charmer!Ā I hope you are all doing well and enjoyed the sneak peek. I will have the whole set for you very soon. I am so looking forward to capturing your little girl as she grows throughout the next year. Of course as a new client I have to issue the blog challenge. If you can get 30 people to comment on this little blog post I will throw in a darling little wallet brag book on the house.

I loved seeing your beautiful baby pictures and you both loving parents. Your Mom was my adopted daughter during her stay at the kibbutz, and we are still in contact. Seeing you girls grow up, marry and have children, brings me tears of happiness for you, and the āgrandparentsā. May you have only āpleasuresā from your daughter.

[ā¦] met Sweet Talia just over a year ago now. She was one of the most alert but calm newborns I have ever had the pleasure of pointing my camera at. I have loved getting to know her family this [ā¦]
