Cheyenne baby portraits

Cheyenne was my very first all baby shoot!  I was so excited to try something new that I had never done before.  I wasn't sure how it was going to go and I was very nervous, although I don't think anyone noticed (hopefully!).  I definately did lots of research on the internet before for some pointers when working with little ones.  I found some amazing suggestions along with some really bad ones too!  Some of the best ones were: Get down on the baby's level.  Don't use a flash.  A warm baby is a happy baby!  and Let mom help you out.   Luckily mom was is a good friend of mine who I have known since middle school! 

I have to say as nervous as I was before the shoot, the photos of little baby Cheyenne turned out beautifully!  I learned a lot along the way too... From baby Cheyenne's photos, I have gained some experience and a lot of confidence for my next baby shoot!
