Welcome Baby E.!

I met B. and A. when I photographed their wedding in 2009.  What a surprise it was to run into them a few months ago and find out they were expecting!  One of my favorite things about being a photographer, is documenting a family from the very beginning, and as it grows.  It is always a special time when I have the opportunity to photograph the newborn baby of a couple whose wedding I photographed.  Lucky for me, B. and A. decided they wanted me to capture those first days with their baby girl.  Baby E. is absolutely beautiful, and was extremely cooperative throughout her session.  I couldn’t have asked for anything better!  Congratulations B. and A.!

The M. Family

We had been trying to make this session happen for a couple of years now, so I was excited to finally be able to photograph the M. family!  I met them at my school a few years ago, and was sad to see them move on to a new school this year.  Luckily, we’ve still been able to to keep in touch and had the opportunity to do this fun session.  Thank you for driving over to the west side to meet me and for a great afternoon at the park!

 

What It Is Really About

The L. family is one of my favorite families!  A few weeks ago, C. contacted me to let me know that they are moving to Atlanta, and that they wanted me to come over and take some photos while they are still in their Arizona home.  Although I was thrilled to spend time with them again, and to meet little T., the newest member of the family, I am a little sad that they are moving.  I hope that I will have the opportunity to see them again, either here or in their new home in Atlanta.  While I was getting this preview ready, I started thinking and I realized that taking pictures isn’t what this is really about.  What it is really about is family, love, and life.  I cherish that.  I think I have mentioned it before, but I can look at any photo I have taken, and recall the details of that moment as if I were living it again, even photos that are not of my own family.  Because of this, every family, every bride and groom, and every newborn baby add a little piece to who I am.

To the L. family, it has been my pleasure to have a peek into your family, your love, and your life.  I wish you all the best on your new adventure!

Welcome to the World Baby C.!

Baby C.’s arrival was scheduled and his first photos planned.  Then, I got sick.  And I had to postpone.  This was something that had never happened to me before, and I was so disappointed.  Luckily, H. and T. were willing to wait another week for me to come over and take baby C.’s first photos.  I’m not so secretly glad they waited!  Welcome to the world baby C.!  We are so glad you are here!
