Just a note, you don't need a fancy camera or Photoshop to link up - it's all about learning to take better pictures...or in my case, I just want to TAKE pictures. Any pictures. Because I would forget to do it otherwise.
I was excited about this week's theme because I had gotten this adorable hat for Emeric from Etsy (Nini's Handmades) and had taken nary a picture of him wearing it. So here it is:

I feel like this is a little "Glamour Shots By Deb" but I'm ok with that. It's been a loooong week, and laying him down on the bed in front of the window is about as creative as I can get with the composition right now. The important thing is that I got a picture of him in the hat, even if I didn't get dressed yesterday. And someday when I look at this picture I won't remember whether or not I was wearing pajamas when I took it, I'll just be glad to remember those cute little baby cheeks peeking out from under his adorable hat. If it weren't for this link up, I guarantee this photo would never have been taken.
So what are you waiting for?! Go link up!
I'm going to edit the EXIF data of that photo and put a comment reminding you that you were wearing pajama pants when you took it :)
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha I kind of wish you would now...actually I don't think I'll ever forget now...
DeleteLove it. And I think with adorable baby photography, less is more. The white shirt/white background combo make his eyes pop and that cute cute hat not get lost in the picture.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up, hope to see you next week.
Oh yes, I am loving this kick in the pants to take pictures!! I'm so glad you're doing it!!!
DeleteLove the hat, may have to steal it for my Eamon. We've got some great E boy names going, dontcha think?
ReplyDeleteYES!! I've never heard the name Eamon before, and people tell me all the time they have never heard the name Emeric!!
DeleteSister and I had to look up Emeric's name because we thought, "It's gotta be an actual saint's name and not just something trendy..." and then we found out it IS a name and decided you must be Hungarian. Way to go, Internet!
DeleteGood detective work! However, no Hungarian on either side...St. Emeric is the son of St. Stephen of Hungary. And since my name is Stephen,we thought it was a good fit. Ava's middle name is Marie, so her name is a play on Ave Maria. Clare's namesake is obvious:-)
DeleteThis is one you will treasure forever. I think the background is perfect, seriously, what a darling angel!
ReplyDeleteI definitely will, and I am SO glad for the weekly kick in the pants to remind me just to take the time to get pictures of the kids!!! It's not easy taking pictures of little ones and I avoid it way too often!!
DeleteOh, sassy! Can you say sassy for a boy? I love how his little cap is tilted just so.
ReplyDeletehahahaha that's just what I thought when I saw this one!!! He looks like such a little bruiser!!
DeleteOne word. Adorable. : )
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Billie Jo!! He is SUCH a sweet baby...it's all true what they say about mamas having a special place in their heart for their baby boys!!!
Delete...and now you've referenced Napoleon. Soul sisters.
ReplyDeleteHe is just way too cute and I seriously love that hat.
YESSS I'm SO glad someone got the reference!!!!!!
DeleteSO cute!!! Love this!
ReplyDeleteYou know I'm saying that in Clare's voice right now :) hahahahahaha :)
DeleteGo ahead and slay me with that cute baby!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness he is the sweetest little boy...his smiles melt me!!! I'll have to make sure I work a big baby grin into my pic next week...
DeleteToo cute! I love that hat, too - baby hats are SO cute and we are always too lazy to actually put them on the babies... I need to start!
ReplyDeleteI KNOW!! The hat is just sooooo cute but it's so hard to keep it on him and I end up leaving it off him half the time when we go out...
DeleteI know "Glamour Shots by Deb" isn't supposed to be the focus of this post....but honestly...."Glamour Shots by Deb"!
ReplyDeleteOhhhh how I wish I could find a good picture of that to post as a reference!!!!!
DeleteAck, can't handle the cute. Tiny babies in hats are just so scrumptious!
ReplyDeleteIt's true - my babies always have such funny hairlines...a hat covers a multitude of hair sins hahaha!!!!
DeleteA great shot of a gorgeous baby!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!!! We are lucky to have huge windows that give us really easy and great lighting...and I know I'm biased but I think those chubby little cheeks are irresistible!!!
DeleteHe is absolutely adorable! The picture is awesome! I could once say my three were all under three too. :) It was busy and fun!
ReplyDeleteBusy and fun is the PERFECT description!! This week has been a tornado of valentines and glitter glue and I'm EXHAUSTED!!!
DeleteIf you keep showing me your scrumptious baby, one of two things is going to happen: 1) I am going to come steal him, or 2) I'm going to beg my hubby for another. 1) is sort of frowned upon by the law, and 2) would cause my hubby a great deal of anxiety right now!
ReplyDeleteEnough about my hormones: I love love love the white in this photo. Such a pure background and it looks like a professional shot to me!
