Abrielle & Quinn | Newborn

I am 100% sure that I “over shared” this newborn session on Facebook. So I am DEFINITELY taking the opportunity to share even more here. Abrielle & Quinn arrived 6 weeks early. After powering through a NICU stay these little fighters were ready for their big modeling debut. They were absolute angels and really made this newborn session so easy especially for twins! (With the help of their awesome parents who assisted me when I was in need of more hands of course!) These four make up such a beautiful family and I am thrilled to have been able to document this special journey for them.

And my favorite from the session that you will find having in my studio very soon..

I absolutely love working with this family. Their girls have minds of their own and certainly kept us on our toes during the session. But those are my kind of people. Check out some images from our session together and keep scrolling to see what image I think should be featured on their Christmas card. As Jennie said “Kids! Keep you humble, that’s for sure .”

and my vote for the Christmas card..

You really can’t be too picky when it comes to photos with a toddler..😂(see what I did there?)

Wishing you a season of love & laughter

Baby L | Birth

It is always an honor to be welcomed into a birth space. I do not take that invitation lightly. And to be asked back in again, it honestly brings on all the feels. I photographed the birth of this couple’s first daughter almost 2 years ago. I posted a birth calendar update and not long after I received a panicked text saying she was almost in tears. My response “Tell me you’re pregnant?! :)” She then proceeded to tell me that she saw I was booked for the month of her due date. Turns out, she was due THE DAY before my sister’s wedding (which I was MOH for) We made a deal that she wouldn't have her baby that day and thank goodness baby girl listened!

The next morning, October 12th, we kept chatting back and fourth. Things weren’t progressing as quickly as she was hoping so she said to hold off on heading to the hospital. 4 mins after that text, “Definitely come! 7 cm 100% effaced” Precisely 1 min after that I was in my car and “On my way!” I’ve reached the half way point of my drive and ding oh who am I kidding.. my birth client’s text tone is more like EHH! EHH! EHH!!

“Speed!!!!!”

Yup. Five exclamation marks.

I remained calm and continued to drive the speed limit.. * wink wink * I call Crouse and explain the situation, asking to use their valet parking. To which they graciously obliged. At the stop light I whip out my camera and put on my lense. Once I got there they even had an elevator held for me. I race up to the 7th floor and am honestly just hoping I don’t hear a baby crying once I get to her room. I walk in and thankfully, mama is still pregnant!

About a half hour later, “It’s a girl!” <3

I am so thankful that I was able to be there for this birth. And while Dad says 2 is the magic number, I’ll be over here hopping for baby #3. ;)

Carmen | Birth

I had 3 births in a matter of 5 days. I was pretty sure the hospital had become my new home. And, I wasn’t upset about that. Minus the mediocre food and lack of sleep. ;) These births were all perfectly spaced throughout the month of June. But what can you do? Babies are on their own schedule! :)

Jenna started having contractions the day before. And since she was about 2 weeks early I was thinking it could possibly be braxton hicks and that she might end up being sent home. Nope! Carmen was ready to meet her mama and daddy! Jenna labored like and absolutely champ and pushed for maybe 10 mins before miss Carmen made her debut. Carmen is perfect. And she is SO lucky to have the awesome family she was welcomed in to.

Here are a few of my favorite images.

And Carmen’s birth video.<3

Katie | Maternity

It is so awesome to watch a couple go from just the two of them to a family four. This was Katie’s second maternity session with me. I’m so honored when people continue to come back to see me for their second and third babies. Forming these relationships and watching ‘my families’ grow is one of my very favorite parts of my job. I had so much fun working with this beautiful family again! Here are a few of my favorites from their session.

Jenna | Maternity

I haven’t done an in-home maternity session since my very first year in business. Well, now I’m kind of in love. Check out some of these casual maternity photos from Jenna’s session. And be prepared to possibly see more of these kinds of sessions in the future. ;)
