Iris is such an unique and beautiful name, and it suits this adorable baby just perfectly. She has very beautiful and striking features, and I think “dainty” is the best word to describe her. This tiny gal was born at just 5lbs and 8 ounces, and was 19 inches long. Mom and dad have three boys, and so they were thrilled to find they were expecting a baby girl as their fourth cutie pie! Her big brothers adore her, and enjoy showing her all of their favorite toys.

Mom shared with me that her nursery (which is absolutely stunning) featured lots of floral accents, so I made sure to shape this session around that idea. Plus, with a name like Iris, flowers are sort of a necessity. I chose a lacy wrap to start with, and a little matching vintage headband. Iris has a beautiful head of dark, soft hair, and the light tones looked beautiful against her skin tone and hair. We added a tiny lamb and more neutral tones to the next looks, and switched out for some pink and purple hues that looked elegant and simple.

I cannot wait to watch this little baby grow up. With three big brothers, she will be loved and cherished all her life (and very well protected!).
