the Hilarious Reason Why These Newborn Photo Shoots Went Viral
In a perfect world, your angelic new baby would curl up in a peaceful pose and sleep his way through a newborn shoot. There would probably be some sort of crochet clothing involved.
These three families do not live in a perfect world.
First, meet Mark Resnick and his seven-day-old son Asher.

After about an hour of smooth sailing during the shoot, Asher decided it was time to let loose.
“He decided to let it rip — like a loud cannon— and covered my back and jeans,” Resnick tells TODAY. I couldn’t stop laughing and I was sure it was dripping down my legs inside my jeans. Funny thing is, I just knew it was going to happen. I was joking about it all day — I just knew it."
Resnick, who shared the post on the Facebook page Life of Dad, certainly isn’t the first father in this situation. Here’s incident no. 2 (hehe), shared by UK dad Adam Ferguson on The Dad Network blog.

Gross. Absolutely. Normal? Yep.
“It would be out of the norm for me to have a shoot in which a newborn did not have some kind of accident during the session,” Gigi O’Dea, who photographed Asher, tells TODAY. “It is usually not this pronounced, and I have never had a baby pee, poop and spit up in one shot. As Dad called it, it was the ‘trifecta.’”
