4 month update

January 18, 2012

Time for a baby update!

The lasst time you saw Aubrey was back in November when I had just taken her two month shots. Life somehow got in the way, so Kirstin and I never were able to take her three month shots. One would think I could have gotten a few good pictures throughout the holidays, but man oh man was that baby perturbed during all of Christmas with the family. A cranky baby does not make for very good photos.

On Monday, Aubrey turned four months old – which is crazy to think about. It seems like just yesterday she was born. I took a look at an old onesie she fit into when she was born and it seems almost ridiculous that she actually fit into those clothes at one point. She is so big! She is also full of personality, smiling and talking all the time (just like her big sister – ha!), and laughing if you do just the right thing.

Somehow from two months to four months, she became quite difficult to photograph. Out of the over 100 shots I took of her, only a select few actually made the cut. Although she wasn’t smiling in most of them, her expressions and blue eyes just steal the show!

 

This drool spot is killing me on the next few – I wish I could make it go away!

I am such a proud auntie! Which one was your favorite?

Sorry Aunt Chelsey, I just can’t choose! She is so stinking cute in each and every one! …..Those blue eyes and those faces- too cute!
My niece is so much harder to photograph as well, they go through that phase for a while now where they are just too busy to even look at the camera. Aren’t they just the cutest- The camera just can’t capture their pure cuteness! That being said, you did one heck of a job capturing her in all of her adorable baby glory! Awww! My heart just melted!

“You talkin’ to me ????”
Too cute!

Wow, what a cute baby girl!!! Don’t you just adore being an aunt?! I have a niece, a nephew, and the newest almost 1-year-old nephew and I couldn’t imagine my life without them. Yes, you are an amazing photographer! Captured the baby joy and cuteness to a T (or …a onesie!) :)

She looks likes you! My favourite is the last one you have of her with the hat on, such a cute little face. I’m now officially an auntie to two since yesterday (haven’t met the new addition yet, tomorrow! :) )

You’ll be proud of me - I learned how to edit out the drool!

Averie @ Love Veggies and Yoga January 19, 2012 at 10:27 am

Congrats!

With the spot removal tool or with the adjustment brush?

I still have a hard time with those two! I am better at coloring, shading, brightening, etc. things than I am at the editing that involves those two.

I like numbers 3, 4 and 5. 3 because her looking upward is cute, 4 because her look is hilarious, and 5 is just plain cute.
