Julianna Pictures, Of Course. :)

Posted in PhotoBlogging
I will admit that one thing I was looking forward to about having a newborn, was getting to take her pictures (is that bad?). Josiah was a few months old when I got my first digital SLR and I wasn't into photography then like I am now- although my hobby has taken a backburner for a while now it seems...

Anyway, I had all of these ideas I wanted to try with her, and I will admit, things aren't working as well as planned. LOL! Most of the little poses I wanted to try with her require a totally fast asleep baby. This little gal does not stay fast asleep once I start messing with her and trying to pose her. Oh well, it's been fun to try.

I think I've got our birth announcement finished. She's a little yellow but hopefully it doesn't look too bad. Just wanted to share some of the keepers I've gotten the past couple days.

Our birth announcement, mostly going out to family members:

And here are the rest.




I know her leg looks kind of funny tucked behind her in this one, but in the others where I moved her leg to the front, her privies were showing.


Last one.

Thanks for all of your comments and congrats! I really love reading through all of them & have had Kenton read them too. :) I have a feeling it's going to take me a while to get back to everyone- I was behind to begin with! Please email me if you need me to get back to you fast- that's easier for me anyway.

Oh my.... she's beautiful. Your photography is absolutely wonderful & inspiring! Just makes me wanna have another..... well, maybe not. If only I could turn back time when my babies were little. ;o) I guess it's a good thing my brother and his wife are having another! Many, many blessings to you all!

Alyssa-

Your pictures are beautiful as usual. I love, love, love, the baby announcement. That is awesome! Great job!

I didn't know you use cloth diapers. Or, maybe I did! I can't remember. What kind of closure are you using. I haven't seen one like that before. How does it work? I just love cloth diaper baby pictures. :) The seem so "old fashion" to me. I need to take some of our precious bundle before he gets too big! :)

I can't wait to see some pictures of Sweetie with the rest of her siblings. Keep the pictures coming! I love them! :)

Try and get some sleep. I am praying that you will be able to function well in that "newborn fog". Cherish it, it goes FAST! Our 8 week old is already sleeping through the night and getting bigger every day. He is growing out of the "newborn" stage already! Yikes! But, he just started smiling. I could melt! :)

Have a blessed day!

She is adorable and those are awesome newborn pictures. Makes me want another baby. In fact, I loved being pregnant and delivery. Of course I chose the medicine option every time.
She's beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.

Those are sooo cute. I so wish I had a digital camera with both my girls when they were babies. But I'm not having another just so I can take pictures of them (C:

Love 'em all, but the birth announcement pic is my favorite. I think it's the pink knit hat... and of course the pretty little face underneath it.

Can't pick a favorite..they're all so sweet!! :) I love the b&w one w black b/g--even with the tucked leg I love it. Plus we have to have some modesty, right? ;) And the birth announcement is PRECIOUS. She's such a sweetheart, you must be soaking her up.

She is so adorable, and you do a good job of capturing her cuteness with your amazing photography. I have a brother named Gabriel except he is 17. I'll talk to you later.
God bless

These are so beautiful, and do I feel bad, its been over a month since I visited your blog. I have been the crazybusy one with working fulltime for awhile, but dh just got a new job and I'm cutting back and going pool in Sept, so maybe I can visit more again.

Can you believe my baby is almost a year!

Look forward to seeing lots more great shots of your beautiful girl (and the other 5!)
