I had the pleasure of photographing this little doll face yesterday and she was just perfection!  Mom brought along a beautiful knit blanket (pictured below) and I loved working it into the shoot.  It had special meaning because mom knit it herself!  I wish my mom had been there to talk knitting with her.  Unfortunately I know nothing on the subject besides how to make knits look good in a portrait.  We always encourage clients to bring along special keepsakes to their newborn shoots.  Some of my favorite portraits are created out of those keepsakes as incorporating them forces me to get a little more creative!  Enjoy your preview mom, I loved meeting you both!
