She is such a sweet, loving kitten who LOVES to fall asleep in your arms or on your chest. She's getting more and more playful every day and just learning to jump (only about 6" high right now). She's adjusted so well here and Scarlett is absolutely in love with her baby! She refers to herself as "mommy" when talking to Sparkles, hehe! 

Naturally, as a newborn photographer, I wanted to bring her into the studio for her "newborn" session. I had so many ideas but Sparkles was a pretty TOUGH baby client. She did not want to stand or be next to the flowers, did NOT want to look at me or the camera at all (except once) and took a very long time to get her to sleep, haha! So a lot of my ideas went out the window and she is SO tiny that baskets and wraps pretty much engulfed her. But after quite a bit of time, we did manage to get a couple of set-ups. And I LOVE the ones with her and her "mommy", Scarlett. So here is our sweet Sparkles...

We had this session at the dog beach in Del Mar. So perfect around sunset! A few of my favorites...

Scarlett was playing around with one of my newborn wraps this morning after a newborn session.

Yay! Lots of rain this weekend and mid-summer too! We have been needing it SO bad and excited for everything to be green again. She almost forgot what rain looked like, haha!
