This is kind of a popular portrait when it comes to baby photography. A lot of photographers do this shot when they are taking newborn portraits, myself included. I had a friend ask me why I would keep taking it when I know others are doing the same thing? Its simple…it is one of those baby photos that as a mom, I would love to have.

I love how this portrait shows every little detail in the newborn baby’s foot. More importantly…I love the the idea that the moms hands are never going to grow so she will always be able to put her hand in this pose and remember how tiny those little feet and toes were. Enjoy!
