This family is just the best. It has been such fun to document the growth of their family from a maternity session with a couple expecting their first child, newborn and milestone sessions for sweet Davi and now the maternity and newborn session of their beautiful new addition Isabela. The term “rainbow baby” has been used to describe babies who are born after a miscarriage, stillbirth or loss of a child, much like a rainbow that appears after a storm. Although Isabela isn’t a rainbow baby by that definition, this little angel is a survivor and has a story that definitely shows she is the rainbow after the storm. This little girl underwent emergency brain surgery at less than 48 hours old after Mom noticed she had been having seizures that were originally dismissed by doctors. After a nurse witnessed the seizures she underwent a series of tests and was transported to children’s hospital where she was prepped for surgery to save her life. It was later determined that sweet Isabela had suffered a stroke while she was still in her Mama’s belly. Did I mention that Isabela had her surgery on Christmas Day? This family has been through so much in the last few months and they have this beautiful and PERFECT little girl here by the grace of God. This picture was taken less than 3 months after her brain surgery, and less than 3.5 weeks after another surgery to reattach her skull from the original surgery. I am completely in awe of this beautiful little girl and her family who have endured so much in her first few months of life!

I loved getting to photograph this family before AND after their newest little girl arrived. How great does Erin look just weeks before baby Everly was born! Baby Everly joined big sisters Maggie (2.5) and Sally (5) as the third little beauty in this sweet family!

I’ve been blessed to know this family since their oldest child Bridget was born! I photographed both Bridget and Hughes’ newborn sessions as well as several sessions since then! It was so fun to photograph Phoebe’s maternity session this fall at their beautiful home. The older kids were SO excited for their little brother to arrive and it reminded me a lot of when I was pregnant with my third little one! I bet they are GREAT helpers at home. Tommy is such a lucky baby to have built in entertainment in the form of a big brother and big sister.

Photographing Whitney and Bjork was so much fun. They were completely at ease and so natural in front of the camera. After our maternity session, I was so excited to see them again with their brand new baby Taylor! She was absolutely precious and a very very good baby at her session! I wonder if she will end up with beautiful red hair like her daddy?!!?

I’m always honored when clients choose ME to photograph their special moments in life. They put a lot of trust into the fact that I am going to be able to capture their family in the way they want to be captured, connect with their kids and bring out their authentic spirit and choose the perfect backdrop for their pictures. This family knew exactly the look they wanted…long grasses, a dirt road, etc. They even suggested a place they’d been before. I went and checked out the location they mentioned because I had never shot there before. I was a bit nervous about being able to provide what I knew they wanted so the night before our session, I emailed Anna and mentioned that I could shoot them at their location of choice, or if she trusted me, I had another great alternative that would yield similar results….my backyard! Anna was so great and said that they were up for anything! I know we captured the essence of their beautiful family, little kids who were so full of life and energy, and the love they all shared! Thank you Anna and Jake for trusting me! I hope you LOVE your maternity images and I’m so excited to meet baby in a few more weeks!
