newborn-family session: daniel at 2 weeks

a few weeks ago, we had this fun photo session for my cousin's newborn baby boy. his name is daniel steven hunter. he was named hunter from the 'hunter green' color since his dad's name is verde, which also means green. (this explains the 1st photo above) their little 1 year old daughter is also named caroline jade (jade green) :-) i also took some photos of her when she was 5 months old. remember the adorable little baby in the big striped cup and guitar? :-) click HERE to view. if you happen to notice, we used my cousin's guitar case again for this session. :-)

also, would you believe that my cousin's siblings have also colors as names? i am not kidding around :-)

anyways, so much for the history of names. :-) the photo session was held at their beautiful home in new york. it was an overcast weather on that day and had been raining a few days before so i had to make the most of whatever natural light was available. we had to use some artificial light too but i think the photos still turned out great. we were also lucky to get some sun a few hours after which gave us the opportunity to take some outdoor shots at their backyard.

baby daniel was great during the photo session. he hardly cried, as most newborns do, which made it so easy for me. he was one of the easiest newborns i took photos of. it was a little bit more difficult trying to get the attention of his little sister which is typical of 1 year olds. :-)

to my cousin, his wife alison and the little ones... thanks again for welcoming us into your home. thanks again too for the great lunch and the wonderful bag of goodies for my new home :-) see you all soon!

lots of love...

she knows she's cute :-)

me and the little ones :-)
