baby charlotte | chicago newborn photographer

Filed in: newborn

Trust me, this pop-tart is as sweet and darling as she looks.  Thanks for being so good for me today baby Charlotte, welcome to this world!

Also, I wanted to give a much deserved thank you to my friend Laura Templin who has been helping me out with my shoots lately (and vice versa), and particularly thank you for helping me with this one.  And finally, an equally big thanks to Carrie Sandoval & Brittany Woodall for teaching me how to do the hanging shot (see photos #6 & #7) – I am so proud to be able to offer such a unique style of photography to my clients now and I have you both to thank for that!
