Kabeer's Newborn Pictures

Time has gotten away from me, and I realized I never did post Kabeer's newborn pictures!  As I mentioned in a previous maternity post, my friends Rahul and Mitu had a sweet baby boy, Kabeer, in July.  I had the opportunity to shoot his "newborn" pictures when he was about 4 weeks old at his home.

This was a very special shoot because it was so reminiscent of my very first newborn shoot, Kabeer's sister Ria, who is a year older than Kabeer.  I was able to capture some similar shots of Kabeer that I did of Ria, which I think would look pretty neat side-by-side in a frame or photo book.  I also had the opportunity to hang out with and get some pictures with Mitu's mother and sister, who had travelled from India to meet the baby.  This is not really just a newborn shoot; it is a celebration of family!

Mitu has gotten so used to my poses, I did not have to set this up!  She said, "We should kiss now."

Kabeer fell asleep, so of course I had to put him in something strange!
