This was the first day I initially started the project. My GOAL is to try and take a documentary ‘ish’ approach on photographing new life. I did this by trying to incorporate precious moments captured between the Mother and her first born child, as well as the little things such as babies ears, feet, hands etc. By incorporating parents into the picture I feel it captures the true proportion size as to just how small a newborn is.

This project is to show the essence of the first 48 hours of life.All images were taken by me (Brittany Steele) for Bella Baby Photography Company. All images are copy righted.You will see that I post all my images in black and white and color. I am a black and white fanatic. I just think black and white images are so much classier. However, I am open to opinion and would like just that, good or bad commented below each post. That would be super helpful and greatly appreciated!
