Babies Ryan & Ellana - Charlotte Baby Photographer

I've been in newborn heaven lately. Five good friends all had babies within five weeks. All but one are in North Carolina, so I've gotten to see four of them. I officially took pictures of two of them (see below).

First up is Baby Ryan. His parents are very good friends of ours from college, and I've been photographing his older brother Drew for almost three years now! We took some similar poses as we did with Drew for comparison's sake. It's really fun to look back and see how much they look alike (or don't) from the same perspective. Ryan did quite well during this session and I was super pleased with the results!

Second up is yet another Boilermaker Baby, Ellana Madeline! Her parents are actually our girls' godparents. They too are very good friends from college. We are lucky that they live just "up the road" in Durham as they attend Duke and UNC respectively. We went to visit Ellana when she was only a week old. I took my camera along for the fun of it. She is so flipping cute! I can't wait to see her again this summer.
