Carter might have been one of the cutest newborns I have ever seen. I am serious. He had the cutest little perfectly shaped head, and was just so small with big round eyes. Perfection. I am so happy that I was able to capture him on short notice… like the short notice he gave his parents by arriving a few weeks early! But as I talk to two good friends now, who each have about 2 weeks to go, early is good… early is good.
As you all know, my life is endlessly connected (which is why it’s such a good thing I cleaned up my act after college!). And once again, this mom and I were connected. I didn’t blog much about it, but last year I did this super cool project for a phenomenal Day School up here on the North Shore. By far one of the most enjoyable assignments I’ve taken on. I photographed a “Day in the Life” for their website and Viewbook content. So as Mom and I are talking, and she tells me where she teaches, it occurs to me that I have actually photographed her before! And really, she looked as awesome 12 days after having a baby as she did before she was pregnant. Dad was pretty cool too… a surfer, so you know that makes me happy… a really smart surfer, actually! This kid is very lucky having the parents he does.

So once again, a very amazing Monday… doing what I love. Watching families together, watching them love their new baby, and watching their new baby watch them!
