Photographing New Brothers..... Chicago Family Photographer

Little Brother A arrived at 37 weeks due to some complications at the end of the pregnancy.... I had the pleasure of photographing him at 6 weeks old, he is so so sweet.  I love preemies!
Big Brother C is 2 years old and is beyond adorable.  He is Dad's buddy and I was loving how he mimicked his Dad's stance and expressions.
Mom had them dressed in cute Big Brother and Little Brother shirts, I enjoy simplicity in wardrobes so I may focus on the kids and their personalities.  While Mom was feeding Little Brother, I gave Big Brother his own mini shoot.... he followed direction beautifully.
We put the boys on the bed, I was very impressed with Big Brother's gentle nature towards his Little Brother.  When my girls were that age Viola pushed Oona away after a minute or so.
We even got a little smile out of Little Brother, I was so happy!
It was a relaxing and easy shoot, too many great images to choose from.
It was a bit bittersweet since I knew this would be the last newborn shoot in my studio I've been in for over 3 years..... I am so glad I got to share that experience with this wonderful family.  Can't wait to move into my own storefront on March 1!  Here are some of my favorite pictures from the Brothers shoot.... it was really hard to narrow them down.
