"What happens when a foster mom is also a newborn photographer?" Kelly Frankenburg asked on her blog.
Adorable newborn puppy photos, of course.
Frankenburg is the photographer behind the lens of 11 Sixteen Photography, based out of Richmond, Virginia, which specializes in capturing newborn babies. Recently, she and her husband signed up to help the city's shelter by fostering a few tiny puppies. Naturally, she put her photography skills to work.

The pups, named Tito, Messi, and Love Bug, were only two weeks old when they arrived at Frankenburg's home, making them the perfect subjects for a newborn shoot.

"Mama dog followed me into the studio and kept an eye on the pup for about five minutes," she said. "I let her sniff and investigate the situation. I guess she approved, because she left the room and I found her asleep on the couch."

Of course, a newborn shoot wouldn't be complete without a few pics of mom. Frankenburg says that although Paris is still a little scared, she's been following her around her home, and is beginning to open up.

Frankenburg will be sharing pupdates to her Facebook page, as well as her Instagram.
