Dana Joy | Baby Portraits

One day in December, I got this call from one of my teachers. It was to babysit her baby girl named Dana. I was SO excited! I recently crocheted these hats and I was just dying to try them on someone! I decided I'd bring some supplies for a photoshoot, and have one on our own. I tried getting her into this absolutely adorable Christmas dress, but that wasn't working, so I just kept what she had on, and tried to get a few shots with their gorgeous Christmas tree in the background. These pictures are by no means professional, but like Dana's mom said, they capture her emotions and faces very well. :)

Which pictures are your favorite: candid ones like the ones above (in a plain, old living room), or ones in a studio?
