New mom: Sweet newborn baby photos

A friend of mine from Louisburg who I grew up with is now doing lifestyle photography (Liz Cooper Photography).

So, we asked her to come out to our house just before Asher was two weeks old to take newborn photos of him. I think she was expecting the usual sleepy, snoozy newborn photos - with blankets and fetal positions and baskets and such.

Ha! Not with my sweet Asher. He was very fussy and usually awake. But the photos are so divine. And yes, I'm totally biased. But I love how they turned out and I'm so glad we have these photos to cherish in the years to come.

Here are some of my faves. (So hard to narrow these down!)
