Baby T -- newborn session

Baby T's newborn session was technically already the fourth time I'd photographed him.  I had already photographed him tucked in his mama's belly for a maternity session.  I was lucky enough to capture his very first photo when I photographed his birth in the hospital.  And I returned to the hospital to do a "First 48" session the next day.  So we already knew each other pretty well and he was very cooperative for me. :)

All of these images were taken at Baby T's home.  I love the comfort and intimacy of an at-home newborn session. If you know someone whose baby will be arriving soon, I'd love to chat with them about their baby's first (or fourth) photo shoot!

Sweet Baby H -- 3 months old

This beautiful girl is my niece and we waited three very long months before we met each other. It was a love at first sight kind of thing though...I mean, those cheeks?  Those eyes?  That smile?  Call me a biased auntie, but isn't she just so beautiful?!

We dressed her in an outfit her mommy wore when she was a little girl and I love that these images have that special sentimental element to them.  We even got Big Brother to jump in for a few shots...and I can't help but think about how sweet it is that God gave this beautiful girl a strong and protective big brother to watch over her!

Love you, Baby H!

The V Family kiddos



I first met Miss S when she was two and have been privileged to photograph her every year since then.  Last year, a little brother joined the family and joined in on the photo shoot fun!  I just realized I never blogged that session, but I need to because his newborn photos are SO sweet!  You can see Miss S at ages two and three here and here and here.  She is so beautiful, so smart and so much fun! And that little brother of hers...heartbreaker in the making!  He loves his puffs, his cozy coupe, his sister, and his snuggles with mom and dad.

Baby G -- 9 months old

Baby G is one of my milestone babies, so we see each other every few months and I get to follow him around with my camera while he shows me all his new tricks!  I've been so lucky to photograph both Baby G and his beautiful big sister throughout their first years.  He kills me with those blue eyes and his smirky smile.  Such a beautiful boy!  Can I also mention really quick how much I love photographing your babies in your own home?  I think there's something really sweet and authentic about photographing a child in their own space!  Ok...enjoy some images of this oh-so-adorable boy!

Baby T's Birth Story

March third, two thousand fourteen. 
An amazing day for the G family.  They welcomed their first child, a beautiful little boy, into their family.  They became a family of three.  Their hearts grew with a love they never knew they could feel. 
 
March third, two thousand fourteen. 
Also an amazing day for me.  To be invited to photograph such an important and intimate occasion was an honor and a privilege.  I loved every minute of it and I hope to be able to photograph more births in the future.  Shoot me an email if you're interested so we can chat details!  
 





 










 
 
 
 

 







G Family,
Thank you for inviting me to photograph Baby T's birthday.  Truly one of the most amazing experiences of my life...to be present the moment two of my best friends became parents.  Love you both and that little boy of yours too!  <3
