Jaime - Hard for YOU???? Could’ve fooled me! These are beautiful!

Jaime - P.S. And so is the mom!!!

Sarah Love Photo - Nuts, I thought I would be the first to comment. Thanks so much for sharing the lighting and camera settings. This really helped. Thanks Melissa!

Beverly Hartle - Beautiful, sweet, tender, sweet, amazing! There are just too many adjectives to describe how simply precious the pics are of this adorable baby! Love it!

Jolene Monteath - These are beautiful, and thank you SO much for putting the info by the pics. It helps so much to aspiring photogs like me, who don’t really know what they’re doing but want too :)

Crissie McDowell - So adorable. And seriously…I keep trying to love shooting newborns, really I do, but it’s just SOOOO stinking HARD!

Marie Long - You can do ANYTHING! Even though newborn shoots may seem hard to do, your pictures never show it! :) Now weddings to me seem hard.
I too know what it is like to be a dripping mess at the end of a newborn shoot, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

Laura Farris - Melissa, these are so beautiful. Newborns ARE hard! But it’s all so worth it when you end up with beautiful images like these. A gorgeous baby & mama always help too ;)
