Being a newborn photographer I get to meet all sorts of men and women fresh to their roles as mother and father.  It is kind of like being that fly on the wall.  Some are stressed.  Most sleep deprived.  A few are lost with all the newness and change.  My favorites are the ones that are over the moon in love.  This is Alexander, lovingly nicknamed Lex.  He came into the world in a flutter of emergency.  Nearly gave his Grandma a heart attack and succeeded in wearing out his Mom and Dad to the point of utter exhaustion.  But like the old English proverb “in like a lion out like a lamb”, he has proven to be a total sweet heart.  You wouldn’t have any idea he insisted on making such a grand entrance!  I love the way his Dad put it.  “Every time Roxanne would push he was climbing his umbilical cord trying to crawl back in!”  Speaking of his Dad…

This little guy is the apple of his eye.  I love when I have doting dads at portrait sessions!  He had a smile from ear to ear.  He wanted to help any way he could.  Watching the way he held his son and looked in his eyes with that tender look melted my heart.  Lex you are a lucky boy!  Because you are your Daddy’s Boy!
