North West Baby Pictures: Baby Nori Steals Spotlight in Kim Kardashian, Kanye West Vogue Shoot
Although Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have garnered lots of attention for gracing the cover the April 2014 issue of Vogue, the couple's 9-month-old daughter North West steals some of their spotlight inside of the new magazine issue.
During the shoot, legendary photographer Annie Leibovitz photographed the 33-year-old reality TV fixture and the 36-year-old rapper coddling their daughter at home. In one snapshot, Kardashian is seen lounging on a leather couch wearing a Nina Ricci white satin gown, while her fiancé has his head on her lap wearing Prada leather pants and holding baby Nori. Kardashian's hand is also strategically placed over the tot's bare bum, showing off her huge engagement ring.
According to US Weekly, Vogue editor-at-large Hamish Bowles described Nori as "pretty," adding that the baby has "inherited her father's furrowed, quizzical brow." Bowles went on to say that the baby is also the "focus of all this attention" in their home.
In another picture, the baby is perched on her father's knee as her mother poses in the cabin of a private plane.
"I take pictures of her all the time and dress her up," Kardashian told Anna Wintour's fashion magazine. "I put Kanye's big chains around her, and I put a little Louis bag and some Jordans, and I was like, 'What up, Daddy?'"
The high-profile pair are also seen coddling their adorable baby in the behind-the-scenes video posted on Vogue.com.
The Vogue editorial comes after speculation that the "Yeezus" hip-hop artist campaigned to have his fiancée on the cover. However, Wintour stated in her editor's letter that she chose the controversial couple because of their influence to "define the culture at any given moment, who stir things up, whose presence in the world shapes the way it looks and influences the way we see it."
