He simply dotes on his girls. Nick’s face lit up anytime his beautiful wife cozied up close. The love they share radiates from them both. Even after several nights of inconsistent sleep, schedules going haywire, and loads of tiny laundry… these two happy parents bring out the best in their new life together. They are quickly learning who this sweet babe of theirs is. Miss Hazel Estelle loves to be lulled to sleep by her dad’s songs. And not the typical nursery rhymes, but a little bit of rock n’ roll. Yes… I made him sing during our session. She loves her hands and is already known to escape from the best of swaddles. With the sneaky look out of one eye and her long fingers opening up to explore her surroundings, she already looks as if she is up to something. I am going to make an early judgment call that these two may see this again down the road. 🙂 Welcome to the world sweet Hazel. There is so much more to see!

The beginnings of her little fingers reaching out.On the left… the pink knit outfit that her mom came home from the hospital in. On the right…looking up to her grandma who chose that outfit. A surprise behind the scenes photo was snapped while we were shooting baby Hazel in her cute little hat from mom’s bestie, Cassy. And here is her sweet little face… showing her first signs of plotting her next move 😉
