William Ryan was born on July 5. Isn’t he a cutie pie? I just love his little baby side-burns, not to mention those adorable bow-shaped lips. And he even gave me a sweet little smile. Anyone who tells you that babies don’t smile is completely wrong in my humble opinion.
Baby Billy was welcomed not just by mom and dad, but by big sister Carolyn, too. Photographing young siblings is among my favorite things. Behind the scenes, convincing a new big brother or sister to participate in a portrait session when their little lives are amid such big change isn’t necessarily easy (although in this specific case, Carolyn was wonderful and easy with her baby brother!). But even when we have to work for it, capturing the new relationship between brothers and sisters is so profoundly lovely. These photos always make me happy. Hope that you enjoy them, too.
Welcome, Little Billy! I’m truly charmed to meet you!
