… and just so perfect. I had a wonderful morning shooting beautiful Elyazia – who was just 11 days old and exactly as I love newborns, all teeny tiny and curled up. Most babies are pretty sleepy throughout their newborn sessions, but this smart cookie was loving the camera. Just look at those eyes… sooooooo gorgeous, she was totally working the model shoot!

After checking me out for a while though she did decide it was time for a snooze, and she dozed curled up, or on Mummy, or on me (oooh how I love sneaking those newborn cuddles under the pretence that it’s “just part of my job”!!)

Check out the thinking pose as she snuggles with her Mummy! I think my heart skipped a beat as I fell in love with those little curled up toes. And this handsome young prince is big brother Hamdan, who is still working out what all the fuss is about!Thank you so much to H and E’s Mummy, who was super organised and made sure I knew her due date so I’d have some time pencilled in for her newborn shoot  (this was especially important as little E decided to be early!) – I can’t wait to see all of you you again, Kirsty x
