Lauren’s Newborn Session: I’m sittin here I’m six days old

 

When I photographed Baby Lauren, daughter to my old friends I-Hwa and John, here just six days old, I couldn’t get Laurie Berkner’s song out of my head.

I’m sittin here I’m one day old
I’m sittin here I’m two days old
I’m sittin here I’m three days old
I’m sittin here I’m four days old 

One day I’ll be a year
then I’ll be two, then three, then four.
But as for now I’m sittin here
and I’m five days old and no days more.

Lauren was 5lbs 13oz at birth. Perfectly sleepy, perfect for curling up against momma, Lauren slept the entire session! All the conditions for a successful newborn shoot that I mentioned here were just right. (I can’t remember another time when I wasn’t pooped or peed on the job, yea!). So we dressed up this perfect, little doll with handmade headbands from Etsy and posed her with all sorts of cute props, like this vintage-inspired frame and called it one sweet day.

One day I’ll be a year
Then I’ll be two, then three, then four.
But as for now I’m gettin really tired
I’m five six days old and no days more.

Not familiar with this, I-Hwa and John? Don’t you worry, you will be soon. You won’t even remember that you used to listen to other music! Congrats on your precious baby and many wonderful years ahead!

xo, Melissa
