Just a week after photographing Pirkko’s birth, I got to go back and capture her newborn beauty. It is always shocking to me just how much babies change in so short a time! Pirkko was wide awake and intent on taking in everything around her. Can you believe that gorgeous hair?
I love being invited into a family’s home to capture the natural beauty of family and love. That image of Pirkko with her mama reminds me of when my babies were newborns. I can almost feel the weight of them in my arms. 
Pirkko is blessed with not one, not two, but three big sisters. All happy to dote on her and brush her hair!
I can tell this baby already has a very special place in her daddy’s heart!
I am a firm believer that photo sessions should be fun; no stiff smiles or awkward moments. Thankfully, Pirkko’s family agreed! I had such a fun morning hanging out with them and capturing these sweet moments.
