Baby Tatum’s Newborn Session – Okotoks AB

Okotoks, AB Newborn Photographer

I’ve been friends with this little girls grandmother for about 6 years now. We met when I sent an email out to my neighborhood asking if anyone knew how to crochet . I’m totally into DIY projects and figured I could teach myself to crochet to make my own props for newborn photography (because us newborn photographers loveeeeeee crocheted outfits that are 3x’s too big – can you read my sarcasm here?)

So anyways, we connected and just really hit it off. She taught me to crochet, I never actually found time to make any outfits (whew!) but we stayed friends on Facebook and I’ve been watching her family grow ever since.

Where was I going with this? Oh right, her Granddaughter – I had just moved into my new studio and needed a model to come in so I can test my lighting, and really just the flow of the space. Luckily for me (and I guess her), she reached out to me and told me she was in the hospital, waiting for her newest granddaughter to arrive and asked if she could be part of my model call.

I was so excited! And just look at how cute her granddaughter is!
