This little lion cub is the absolute cutest! 6 months before he was born, his mom and I planned out the perfect session which included a lion cub outfit, family portraits and Rutgers gear. {Go RU!} It was a major success!

So, let me tell you… I work with this little guys mama at the high school and she is one of the funniest, most caring, family-oriented, loving humans ever. She’s a beloved Math teacher and her husband is equally as amazing! Together they’ve created such a perfect little family and I can’t wait to watch them grow into the wonderful parents I know they will be. (And already are – just two months into their journey!)

This little man made my job easy as he fell deeply asleep while I set up a studio in his nursery and stayed asleep almost the entire 3 hour session! What a champ!

In the “studio” we dressed him up in a knitted lion outfit, which I just LOVE….

…and I got him to fall asleep snuggling a little lion doll. {…with a smile and everything!! Making my heart melt!}newborn-portraits

We managed to get some snuggly family shots with the parents. <3

and we ended the session with a set of Rutgers Football images. He is going to grow up to be a huge Rutgers fan, just like his parents!
