Here he is! Mr. Dax Dietz. Dax is the brand-new son of our very good friends, Zach and Shanna. He arrived just 10 days after we shot Shanna's Maternity Session- 2 weeks early! So we actually ended up doing his newborn shoot one day before his due date. This guy spent about a week in the NICU and has proven to be one tough little man! (Plus, he has some pretty amazing, God-trusting parents.) Now that he's home, he's quite comfortable...and I'm sure he and Knox will be up to no good before we know it! 

After going through the images from this session, I selected my favorites...there were only 43 of them, haha! So, here is the very narrowed-down selection of favorites I have from this session!

I think you can see a little of Dax's cousin, baby Atlynn, in this image on the right. Red hair runs in the family- on both sides!

I love that when babies cry, they cry with everything they've got...and I still think it's cute...so I take pictures.

Oh my gosh. They are ADORABLE! I love how his red hair shows up!! I think I'm a little partial to the last photo. They're all beautiful, Lissa!

Oh. I love, love, love him. It's so fun to see these large sized photos of him after seeing so many on my cell phone. :) I can hardly wait to meet him. Maybe I'll meet his best buddy, too? :)

Oh my goodness! I can't believe I haven't met him yet!!! He's precious. Adorable. Scrumptious. I love the chubby skin folds on his arms in the one where Shanna's holding him. I love him in the guitar case. I love his red hair. Yeah, can I meet his best bud too???
