Even in our increasingly connected world, becoming an internet sensation isn’t easy. However Joey Marie Choi has done so (with an assist from her mom) at just four months old, and she’s been asleep the whole time to boot.
Choi’s mother, photographer Laura Izumikawa, found herself enamored with watching her new baby sleep. She explained, “I would just end up staring at her face all day and night because I was just so in love.”

As time went by, Izumikawa’s desire to capture her daughter’s naps for posterity in a rather interesting way. “Because Joey slept so deeply, I thought it’d be fun adding little props on her just to send some hilarious pictures to our parents. It was a way to memorialize her growth and little milestones.”
She began dressing little Joey Marie in costumes reminiscent of various pop culture icons including cartoon characters, Olympians, Beyoncé, Jon Snow, Garth from Wayne’s World, Han Solo, and others and posting photos on her Instagram account.
Hey babygirl, let me take a pik at chu. #pokemon
