This session was back in the Fall of 2007 (during a BIG heat wave!) and I now have permission from the family to share. These children are so gorgeous… and little miss Judah… she is destined to be on stage some day. Look out! Can anyone guess who? © carrie sandoval


Ok, here’s the biggest clue
:

Meet Miss Riley. An adorable little chunk tipping the scales at almost 10 pounds… a wee too big to fit in my camera bag, hehe! I can’t wait to show the parents their gallery… many favorites! (geeky photographer info: shot at f/1.8 – a little surprised myself!) © carrie sandoval
Mikayla’s (the adorable 3 month old below) Mom, a fellow friend and photographer, asked if I would help her with a newborn triplet session. With the “casting call” in full swing, how could I resist? I know I mentioned below that I wasn’t going post any of the casting call images, but I have done this pose before, so what the heck?
Today it turned out a lot more like I had envisioned, though! A lot more “tucked in”.Let me brag about these babies for a moment… Mom took doctors orders like a saint and went on bedrest at 20 weeks. This helped these little ones gestate until 36 weeks!!! They weighed 4 lbs 13 oz, 5 lbs 5 oz and 5 lbs 13 oz. And ALL 3 came home together, just 48 hours after birth! Isn’t that AMAZING? They are 7 days old here. © carrie sandoval
This is Luke (and his gorgeous Mommy!). He was born 5 weeks early, but came home as healthy as can be. He was 3 weeks old at his photo shoot. © carrie sandoval
