Trevor: Newborn Shoot

This past week I had the chance to visit my new nephew.  My husband's sister gave birth on May 26th.  Trevor weighed in at 9 lbs 5 oz and is cute as a button.  Enjoy the photos!

This was actually my first shoot with backdrops and intentional props.  I brought two backdrops (a plain white one and a plain black one) and hung them on a curtain rod with Command hooks.  I bought some super fluffy material for inside the basket and had it on top of another blanket to make it high enough.  The lights in the background of the first photo are just Christmas lights.  I hung up one strand by tucking it in at different places on the curtain rod.  I also made sure the room was nice and toasty for the little one by using a small space heater.  The noise did not bother him, and he was warm enough to stay asleep when we undressed him.  It was a great shoot!
