Early this morning, Victoria Beckham took to her Twitter account to post a photograph of husband David, cradling their newborn daughter, little Harper Seven:

Harper Seven Beckham with her father, David

I love this. It seems like a genuine, intimate moment, a candid portrait, a perfect vignette.

Also? Shrewd move. (Sorry, I’ve now ruined the poetic mood I’d just established.) But really. In the past, a lot of celebrities have sold off their own baby photos to the highest bidding tabloid, if only to keep the paparazzi from hounding them. Unfortunately, that practice always looks like shameless profiteering to the rest of us. Solution: publish your own baby photos on a microblogging platform! That’s social media savvy, and it shows that the Beckham family is really protecting Harper, not promoting her.

But never mind. Point is, they are clearly happy parents, and it is easy to share their excitement.
