Gentle Deer Photobombs Sleeping Baby In Unforgettable Image

A deer “photobombed” a newborn’s photoshoot recently. Megan Rion told ABC News that Maggie the fawn appeared when she was taking photos of 1-month-old Conner at Sam Houston Jones State Park in Louisiana on October 20.

Baby Connor was in the middle of his first shoot, looking ever-so gorgeous as he nuzzled into a hay bale at a park in Louisiana, when a deer walked up behind him. Rion said Conner’s mom was in awe at how the deer showed up so peacefully, and at how they were able to pose her baby for the wonderful shots, which were a surprise for her husband.

The resulting photos have gone viral online, with a few even claiming they look too whimsical to be real.

Rion uploaded the final shot to her Facebook page.

Maggie has become popular in other photos, as well.

Ms Rion told 9news.com.au she is actually familiar with the deer, named Maggie, who often strolls into her photoshoots. “But I always make sure that we have one hand right near the baby, because she is a wild animal”.

Maggie has made an appearance in several of Rion’s photography sessions.

“My assistant then took part of our set-up, an ear of corn, to coax her to look straight”.
