Photos of ‘newborn’ 13-year-old go viral

“Newborn” photos of a 13-year-old boy have gone viral after they were posted on online.

Professional photographer Kelly Higgins took “newborn portrait" style photos of her adopted son after he told her he wished he had baby photos, UPI reported.

She later posted three “baby” photos of Latrell, who was adopted when he was 10 years old, on the popular social networking site Facebook.

They have since been shared nearly 5,000 times and received nearly 12,000 “likes.”

“Here's my sweet not so little Newborn! His name is Latrell and weighs 112lbs ;),” Higgins wrote on her Facebook page.

Higgins and her husband have six biological children in addition to Latrell and his younger sister, Chanya.
