The day started just like any other.
Little Benjamin arrived and we were all set for a wonderful morning of snuggling, wrapping and photographing a beautiful baby boy.
He was so relaxed and peaceful as we undressed him and posed him through photos with his mum and dad. He was awake at first then snuggled into his cuddles against their bodies and fell into a restful sleep. I love when this happens, its a sign of just how much a new baby loves being with their mum and dad.
We were nearly finished family photos when suddenly...
Click.. Clunk.. churn.
After photographing hundreds of families and hundreds of adorable babies, my camera couldn't handle the cuteness any more and crashed mid-shoot.
The error code was ERR20 which I looked up, it means "cute overload".
Immediately I got out my backup camera, but as with any reserve team, its not quite as good as the main camera. So the decision was made to postpone the session for a couple of days while I repaired or replaced my camera.
So two days later we had the de-ja-vu situation of meeting at the front door again, setting up the family photo once more and capturing the rest of the session.
This time it went without a hitch, Benjamin was in a lovely relaxed state, so much that he didnt even stop for a feed the whole two hours they were here.
He loved his dummy so much! Ive not seen a baby that enjoyed it so much so early on, but what a wonderful thing to have a quick soothing option at just ten days new.
We would pose him with his dummy, get everything set, then just as I was about to take the photo, remove the dummy and capture the setup. This sometimes results in cute "kissy-lips" which is adorable. Sometimes when we removed the dummy he would do this cute little lip quiver as though he was about to cry, then settle again. Gosh I love being around sweet little moments like that!
Since the session had been split in two we were done in no time and they were off to enjoy the rest of the beautiful weekend as a new family.
