Maddie's Photo Shoot

Maddie went to see Shelby Lane today for her photo shoot. She brought three dresses and my baby blanket. We dressed her in a long white dress first that is from Great Mawmaw, and took pictures of her in a wicker basket. That one is shown below and we took some of the three of us. I was holding her and Les was standing beside me. Maddie then decided to fuss and we had to take a short break so she could eat. I think she didn't like changing clothes and being carried around. Maddie's birth announcement will orginate from some of these pictures. We would like to have one of our family and then one of her alone. We will decide on the birth announcement after the proofs come in. We still can't believe that this is our family. We are so happy!

We then put her in a Feldman pink dress that is from Nana and Papa. She looked like a big girl in her pink dress. We posed for our family picture with Les holding her and me standing by his side. Les wore a pale blue shirt with stripes and i had on a white shirt. Since Maddie was cooperating and not fussing we continued on and took some of just Maddie and Daddy then Mommy and Maddie. The pictures are going to be amazing.

Lastly, Shelby had us posed with Maddie in some photos of her unclothed. She had fallen asleep by now so she didn't pose an argument as we held her. Les and I were both dressed in black and I held her while we both looked at her. We then took some of just Les holding her with her feet on his chest. It was so sweet! Then Shelby took some of me holding her on my chest with her head on my shoulder. They are simple poses but they are so beautiful with the lightening and camera that Shelby uses. We can't capture these pictures with just our camera.

Enjoy the pictures of Maddie and our family below. The real pictures will be ready to view in a couple of weeks. We are really happy with the results from the shoot today.
