Ruby Sessions

Every couple of months since her birth I've had a photo session with my niece Ruby. In our first session when she was only 2 weeks old me, my mother, and sister all worked relentlessly just to position her as she slept like a lump. We worked over an hour trying to get her to wake up long enough to take a couple quick shots of her eyes open.

In the next session at 2 months positioning her was a little easier as she could now hold her head up. This time we worked tirelessly to try to capture one of her elusive smiles. We failed, but met the other goal of showcasing her newly vibrant blue eyes.



Then at 5 months it was the Fall and time for an outdoor shoot. She had learned to sit up for more than a few seconds literally the day before so we took advantage. She also was much more generous with her smiles.

At 6.5 months she was a full-fledged ham. It was a breeze taking her Christmas portraits as she was all smiles and incredibly responsive to the high pitched squeals from her Granny.

Obviously Ruby is on track to be the most photographed child in history. Hopefully by the time she gets to that very easily distracted age we will have her so trained she will be like a seasoned pro ready for her next fashion spread.
