“happy together”

I have been lucky to know Hayward & Natalie for several years now and I felt even luckier to capture memories for them of their new lil’ one, Eleanor. I think babies are the best thing ever (especially when you can take pictures and give them back to their parents..just kidding of course :)). From the moment I met Eleanor, she had the biggest, cutest smile on her face! Yes, I tend to have that effect on babies…and others :). I think she was just really mesmerized by my shiny braces. Nevertheless, I knew it was going to be a great, fun shoot, especially with all the wardrobe changes Natalie had planned for Eleanor :). Thanks Hayward, Natalie and of course Eleanor for welcoming me into your home and letting me share insight into your lovely family!

Aren’t they such a cute, lil’ family?!

Look at those eyes!!!

Handband please!

Hmmm how about a new hat instead? Ok I love this pic because she looks so adorably chubby. Chubby babies are the best.

And I love this pic because she looks so adorably happy. Happy babies are the best.

Hi my name is Eleanor and I also moonlight as a hat model.

My faaavorite hat!

And when I’m not modeling, I’m gnawing on daddy’s fingers. nom, nom, nom

Doesn’t this photo just represent happiness?! I love it!

Resting in her blankie…after a hard day’s work. It’s tough being so cute.
