{Luella, 6 months} Long Beach, CA Baby Photographer

I've been dying to share this session here on the blog but had had to post prior clients first. I cannot get over Lu's cuteness! She is such a little stud at the ripe age of 6 months. She's crawling, standing, and asserting herself like no other. She is the perfect combination of her parents!

NOTE to Moms: If you are interested in capturing awesome shots of your baby...do it as soon as they are sitting up on their own, and before they begin to crawl. Unfortunately, in Lu's case she started crawling BEFORE she sat up alone. I know, crazy...right?

I'm also excited to share a behind-the-scenes look at capturing this session in a future blog. Can you imagine a naked baby crawling away, all the while my 18 month trying to tickle and play with her. It was comedy and I only wish I had video of our session captured (we actually did grab the flip after realizing how funny it was). It's really so fun to see our two girls interact with one another. Every night as Brooklyn is going to sleep, she lies in her crib and goes through her list of names that she knows..."mama, dada, coco, lulu...". They are at the top of her list next to us. When the phone rings, Brooklyn exclaims "It's CoCo". When I'm editing images, she screams "lulu". It wasn't until recently that "lulu" was pronounced "wuwu". But she has now perfected the "l" sound. It kinda makes me sad, because it was pretty cute the way she pronounced it first.

But on to the images...BEWARE that the following images are full of CUTENESS!
