Haven't posted a shot of a newborn grandkid in some time. Here's one of my 1 day old grandson. These shots are the reason I started on a prime binge. Poor lighting and I really couldn't use flash without distracting the entire room.

C&C would be appreciated!

Very sweet... :) I agree with the nail polish though.. I don't think I"m an old fart.. but I could be.. haha.. Whenever I do a newborn or maternity session, I advise the mom/mom to be.. to wear natural polish or a french manicure.. so that the nail color does not attract attention.. soft pretty and sweet.

I'm sure this was taken in "the moment".. so we'll just love the softness of the relationship.. but maybe mom can change her polish for the next few months... lol... ;)

Thank you for all the positive comments. My wife will be thrilled since she's the grandma, not the mom and she is the one holding the baby! I like the suggestions on the nail color. I don't think about details like that at all. I brought my camera along and took a few candid shots since I didn't want to distract from the event. I'll be better prepared (and prepare my wife!) the next time we have a grandchild.
