Newborn 8 days old photoshoot

[Kauaicrazed]

I had the oppty to shoot this adorable beauty at 8 days old! Was I excited! She wouldn't go to sleep for most of the session but I was able to get some good ones of her when she was atleast IMHO. She was so beautiful. C&C greatly appreciated. I do have a few questions about some of them...if anyone can help me. They are under the picture numbers.

All natural lighting. Most of them were taken outside under a covered porch. #4 was taken indoors with window lighting. The baby is laying on black fleece fabric. I hung a black sheet from the ceiling of the porch as well for other shots.

Impressive use of natural light!

Thank you! I bought it on etsy. Here is a link to the shop. Vanessa is great to work with but she doesn't list them much anymore so you have to request one if interested.
