CMMC Baby - William D. III

This morning I went to the Special Delivery Birthing Center at Central Maine Medical Center in Lewiston. Today was my first day as one of the two new Maternity Photographers for CMMC, and a great first day it was!

After first calling in and being told there were no babies interested in portraits I started my daily workout, about 1/2 way through I got a call back asking if I would come in to do a quick photograph for a new little guy named William for the CMMC New Arrivals Website where they share birth announcements of the babies born at the hospital.

As it was my first day in this role I had the hallmark first-day nerves to deal with. Which in my case was waking up at 4am freaking out that I didn't have any boy props in my newborn stash! Good thing I know how to crochet! Made up this super cute hat and thought "There, at least I have ONE thing to use specifically if I have a little baby boy to photograph! Oh no! Watch me get twins!!"


Even though it was a little boy that I was photographing this morning, it was just one. Phew! 

Little William was so immensely sweet, I don't think I heard him fuss the entire time I was there! It must have been all the love that was there with him, momma, auntie & a whole bunch of cousins! 

His Auntie had gotten him a super sweet little moose sleeper set, and I had the perfect prop for that (a last minute grab from the studio) a little moose for him to snuggle with! 

He enjoyed snuggling with the moose so much I was able to capture the sweetest little smile in one of my first few shots! How adorable is he?
