A photo shoot for Sofie

Wanting to capture Sofia while she was tiny, I got in touch with Kelly. She is a local photographer who will travel to your home for the photo opportunities. She photographs in natural light and I have to say, I wasn't sure how well a photo shoot in our tiny home would be, it was very comfortable and she was able to create the environment she needed despite our new baby chaos. It was very comfortable having her in our home to take the photos of Sofia and even Hugo relaxed after a bit.

Originally Akis thought I was crazy to want to spend money on photos when we have a camera. His approach was that we can take these photos ourselves! However after seeing what Kelly was able to do, he was very pleased that I had insisted that we get the photographs done.

Kelly was very patient, and despite Sofie not being sleepy, she managed to get some fantastic shots of her. She even offered to come back for a second round of photos when Sofie just had enough on the first day.

Big thanks to Kelly for her efforts and patience ~ the feedback from folks who have seen the photos has been very positive, in fact it seems everyone loves the photos!

Here are some of the shots she got the first day. There were shots of Sofia on her own:

We even tried to get Hugo in there ~ with some moderate success:

And here are some sneak peaks from the second round. She is pretty cute!
