Shelby Helen Ruger- I month old

Shelby's mother and I became friends over twenty years ago, in elementary school.  It was fun to spend time catching up with an old friend and photographing her new daughter.  Shelby was a little modest and was not too excited about the photos without her clothes, but once she was dressed, she was a perfect model!  :)  She is so sweet and I must admit that rocking the babies after our sessions is my favorite part.  "Mom" and "Dad" offered to let me spend the night to have that opportunity at 1am and 3am, but that is the fun part about being a photographer of newborns- I get to stay for the fun and not have to worry about the sleep deprivation that comes with being a parent of a newborn!  Ha!  Here is a sneek peek!
