Smiles

Emilia has the cutest smiles! She smiles when she sees me for the first time in the morning (after she's eaten, of course--gotta have priorities, right?); she smiles when she hears daddy after he's been gone all day; she smiles when you talk to her and let her try to talk back. She's just a smiley girl.





Our apartment is a two-story townhouse. Our rooms are upstairs, but in the mornings I bring Emi downstairs to feed her on the couch because it's comfy. :) A lot of times when she's done eating, she falls back to sleep, so I just set her on the couch and cover her up. (I'll stop doing that when she starts trying to roll around, but for now it works great!)

You gotta start somewhere...and really: who wouldn't want to look at her?

The whole reason I decided to start this blog was to help out my website, www.sabrinawattsphotography.com, but who am I kidding? How could anyone possibly be more deserving of camera time than my beautiful Emilia Jean? Just to prove my point, here are my latest professional-type photos of the Great and Powerful Emi:

This is my favorite. She just looks so peaceful.


I tried messing with the color a little on this one. You know...I wanted to make it look like an old black and white photo that they painted to put some color in. I like how it turned out. What do you think?



Before you look at the rest, I suppose I should tell you the story behind the pics. :) I was looking at some other photographer's websites in Logan, UT, to find out what competitors pricing was looking like, and I found a website for a lady who specializes in baby pictures. They were so cute that I was inspired to do some of Emi. So I got everything set up on our bed (because the lighting is the best in the master bedroom). I got the pillows all arranged and threw a blanket over the top, fed Emi, so she would be happy, got her undressed, and got all of like 5 pictures taken before she peed all over everything. Argh.







Looking very thoughtful in this one. :)





At least feeding her worked. She was pretty calm!



Well, it's late, so I'm going to bed, but I'll post again tomorrow. Don't have anything better to do while breastfeeding! :)
