Children's Portraiture ++ Baby Hayden

It seems like babies are popping up out of nowhere these days and filling the frame of my camera just as fast. I love it! I don't know if it is because I never really grew or the fact that I can't wait to have children of my own, but I feel mysteriously drawn to this typically difficult feat.

It's about running and playing and discovering new things; like the first time a child comes to the realization that they have a shadow or even toes. First steps, sitting up, booking it from mom and dad or sitting in their lap reading one. These first moments of forming relationships and features capture my attention and imagination, and so I capture them in return.
