I got to have sweet Amira in the studio last month for a baby photography mini milestone session.
Amira is three months old now and such a cutie! Her parents, Nakkia and Jesse,
made the drive all the way from Toledo and Albany (a drive of three hours and one
hour, respectively, from my photography
studio in Eugene, Oregon). Talk about dedication! I’m so glad they were
able to make it and think it’s great that they both wanted pictures together
with their daughter and were willing to put forward that extra effort to make
it happen. Amira is lucky to have such an amazing mom and dad who both love her
to pieces!
Amira is an absolute doll. She has the loveliest dark skin
and gorgeous blue eyes that really stand out in her beautiful face. I think she
looks a lot like her daddy. She was so good for me during our baby photography session! Many times
babies that age are still a little uncertain about the camera and don’t want to
smile or interact with me a lot, but Amira gave me a ton of smiles and lots of
fun expressions, which I loved! She seemed totally comfortable in the studio
and was happy to let me work the camera from one end while she worked it from
the other!
I loved the polka dot and floral outfits Amira wore—the blue
really brought out her eyes, and that bright pink headband was so cute and gave
the perfect splash of color to bring a livelier touch to our muted color
scheme. Although this was a mini session, we still managed to squeeze a couple
of props in—and Amira is petite enough that she could fit pretty comfortably
into some of the props (like the moon and stars) that I usually use for newborns.
It was fun to use some of the things in my studio in a bit of a different way
to suit an older baby.
Amira was a true delight to work with. She is such a happy
little girl, and her visit was a ray of sunshine in my day. Her smiles and giggles
are infectious! It was so cute to watch her with her parents too. She loves being
cuddled, held, kissed, and tickled by them, and she was having such a good time
that it was easy to get some great shots. She really is adorable, and as a Eugene, Oregon photographer I loved
that she felt so at home in my studio. I always want it to be a wonderful
experience for everyone who comes, so I’m glad Amira had fun!
I’m so happy Amira, Nakkia, and Jesse were able to make the trip
to see me. It was great to spend some time with them and get to know them a
bit, and our session went so smoothly. It was a pleasure to be the baby photographer for this wonderful
group, and I wish each of them the very best!
