Oh boy.. Connor. What a sweet heart you already are, even at just two weeks old.

I seriously can’t even count up all the times he smiled during his newborn & family photography session with us. Β I’m guessing when I come back and revisit him months or years down the road that he’ll probably have the same big grin on his face πŸ™‚

Anyway, below are but a few of my favorites from our time with Connor and his family (and you needn’t worry, I definitely included some smiles :)). Β And as always, thanks a million to mom & dad for inviting us out to capture their new family and for being incredibly sweet and hospitable to us while we spent time with them all Β XOXO
