So, I’d been seeing these really cool looking newborn “nests” and wanted to try some shots with them. It has been years since I crocheted anything, but I figured I could remember enough to make a baby mat with fringe. Once they were finished, I posted a message to Facebook asking if anybody had a small baby and needed some pictures. Luckily, my neighbor across the street answered me right back and said, “Angie will be having her baby any day. It’s a girl!” So…we waited. And waited! Finally, she was born on 09/17/09, weighing in at 9lbs, 1 oz and 21 inches long. Since we had a little girl to work with, Kelly and I decided to make a little pink tutu for the shoot, too.

Angie and Mike brought the baby over on their way home from the hospital two days later. She was such a good little model…she slept through most of the shoot and let us move her around and pose her however we wanted. Congratulations to Angie and Mike on their new addition!
