This family was fun from start to finish! We did a little studio, and then had some fun downtown. Here’s a little sample of how it went. 🙂
At 2AM I got a call from Tom telling me Sarah’s contractions were getting stronger, and that the midwives were on their way over. I told him to let me know how much she has progressed once her midwive got to the house and checked. I tried to get back to sleep, but it was to no avail. By 3:45AM I hadn’t heard back, and that made me a bit nervous. I called Tom back to find out how things were going. It was time to head over. So while the rest of my family slept I threw on my clothes, grabbed my bag, and told my husband good-bye.
I’ve entered quiet births before, but never with so many people. I was so impressed that with about 6 additional people this mom and dad were able to get the beautiful homebirth they had so desired. Sarah was amazing. Their beautiful, red-headed baby girl entered the world as the sun was rising through the window. At 8:11AM on June 3rd, 2014 Tom and Sarah finally got to meet their precious baby.
I can’t wait to share her newborn images with you as well, but for now you all get to witness this awesome birth story thanks to mom and dad’s approval. Enjoy!
I just love this sweet little guy. He is usually all smiles, but this particular morning he wasn’t so much. It took a little bit more effort to get these, but so completely worth it! Mom told me he woke from his nap later that day with a fever…which make these images all the more amazing! Can’t wait to see him again at a year. XO
It was so fun to see this family again this year. These boys never dissapoint for entertainment and personality! Sometimes the best images come from complete chaos…and if mom is reading this she is laughing out loud. 🙂
A beautiful family on a beautiful spring day. These sweet kiddo’s made my job way too easy. My hope during every session is that I can capture a child’s true personality. These two sure let me see that, and I hope they enjoy their images for years to come.
People often ask me how I decide what pictures to put up in my own house. Often times I have to be honest and tell them I can’t…which is why I still have too many empty walls. Hahaha! But truthfully I pick the images that on a bad day I can look at my walls and my spirit is lifted. Images that speak to me. Sometimes that is a picture of a beautiful smile, but not always. Go with the images that speak to you. You can’t go wrong.
