Little peanut Harrison surprised his parents by arriving 3.5 weeks early on Easter Day. He was just as tiny, sweet, and mellow as he looks in his photos. I’ve been photographing this lovely family for almost three years, ever since big sister Reagan was in the hospital for her Fresh 48 session. I was SO excited when mama Amanda reached out and told me they were expecting another baby, this time a sweet boy! It’s truly the biggest honor and pleasure to be able to photograph the same families over the years.

Feminine, sweet, dainty. Three words to describe this newborn session with baby Grace! Lucy and Ben are first-time parents and just recently welcomed their baby girl. A couple months before Grace’s arrival these two moved into a new home. I was so surprised to see her nursery look so complete so shortly after the move! The light furniture and feminine touches made such a great backdrop for their lifestyle photos.

This session was really special. Identical twins Ellie and Clare were welcomed into this world after a long journey to parenthood for parents Matt and Kristina. To make it even more special, Matt is my cousin! I couldn’t be happier for this growing family, including puppy brother Toby. As the artwork above their cribs says, “Sometimes when you pray for a miracle, you get two.”
