I realized the other day that this sweet family gave me permission to share their birth and I hadn’t hit post! There are so many things I loved about this birth. First, being asked to capture another birth for them, returning clients make my heart swoon. I LOVE that this family is so big and fun and loud and full of love. They invited me to the “before” birthday party and you’ll see a few photos in the very beginning and then I followed them to the hospital. I’ve had people question whether they want to have a c-section photographed or not and my answer is always YES! All birth experiences and babies are worth documenting! I love that […]

A storm came through last week. A big one. The kind of Texas storm that makes me long for the simple rain and drizzle I grew up with in the pacific northwest. When it rains here, why does it have to be so….violent?! Why can’t it just rain?! I got the call around 2 am that this momma was in labor. Her plan was to labor at home for a bit and she’d call me with an update. Just a little while later, I got another more urgent call, I could hear it in her voice, it was time to move.

This birth started out with a big pre-birth party at their house and I have to admit, I had a lot of fun. Just like at Izzy’s birth, there were a lot of laughs, a lot of smiles, and there was especially, a whole lot of love. So many moments I loved, the kids dancing to Elvis music at the party, big brother Hudson discovering the gender for the first time, momma enjoying her baby and totally […]

I had a maternity session scheduled for tonight to capture a cute little baby bump. I still met up with this beautiful family, but they were photographed a little differently than initially planned for today!

Out of all the mommy/baby photos I’ve captured, yeah, that one goes in right toward the top of the list. Love it. Pure joy!

Congrats A & T on your beautiful new baby girl!!
