A Charming Engagement Session in German Village

A few months ago I shot engagement photos for a couple in Columbus, Ohio's German Village.  It is one of my favorite parts of Columbus because it is just so darn charming.  The best part of it is that the Book Loft was so kind as to let us shoot some photos in their shop

 

A Little Newborn Photography...

So far I've only posted a few illustrations, but here is a little newborn photography for ya...

I really, and I mean really wish that I had saved the original files for this picture.  The next time I do this pose I will save them and show a before and after and put a tutorial together- I promise!  Everyone asks how I get a newborn to pose like this... The answer is, I don't!  It's two pictures put together.  One where the mother is supporting the baby's head, and another where she is holding the baby's arms together under her chin.  Baby safety should be a photographer's number one priority so DO NOT try to get this pose without using assistance from the mother and, of course, a little Photoshop magic.
