Penelope | Newborn

I got to love on sweet little Penelope today!

She was such a joy to have in the studio, I seriously

could have snuggled her all day. But, I had to get some work done

somehow! Haha. She totally rocked her first photo shoot.

Just a fair warning, it's pretty precious.

World, meet Penelope.

She fought sleep for probably the first 30 minutes of her session. But,

as I told her, I have more patience. :) Haha!

Cook | Birth Story

I had the privilege of photographing a birth this afternoon. It was possibly one of the

most amazing experiences I've ever had the chance to be apart of. There aren't many words

to describe it. But, it was truly awesome. 

This momma was one trooper too! She was due this past Sunday, and still hadn't gone into labor

yesterday. So last night she went in to the hospital to be induced. I thought I was going

to have to head to the hospital in the middle of the night! But, this stubborn little guy 

just did not want to leave his momma's belly! Finally, well over 12 hours

later, he decided to make his way into the world. Let me tell you,

he was well worth the wait.

Valentai did an amazing job, and she was so strong the whole time. Not to mention,

she had an AMAZING support system behind her, helping her and caring for her. 

I can't wait to share these with you all. 

Birth stories are so, beautiful. 

Thank you Tai and Justin for having me be apart of this special day!

Whitley | Newborn

Sweet, sweet little Whitley. For awhile, she would not

cooperate with us anything. But, after much patience and work she

gave in a fell into a deep sleep. 

Her parents were so laid back and easy going. She also has a quite

rambunctious 20 month old big sister! Whew.

Anyway, this session is pretty precious. I'm super excited to 

share it with you all.

So, world, I would like you all to meet Whitley.

Tristan | Newborn

I finally got to meet sweet baby Tristan today! 

I shot a maternity session for his momma and daddy a few

weeks ago. And since, they'd been very (or not so very) patiently

for his arrival! 6 days ago today he decided to make his 

grand entrance! 

Let me tell you all, this little guy is going to be a heartbreaker.

He's going to have all the girls swooning over him in no time. :) 

Welcome to the world, handsome!

Hannah | Newborn

I finally got to cuddle sweet Hannah this afternoon! She is so

very precious, and extremely loved by her parents.

Although, that little face isn't hard to love at all. :) 

Hannah's momma brought in lots of adorable props, including

one in particular that was a favorite with daddy.

The Yoda hat. How awesome is that?!

I just cannot wait to share these with you all.

Welcome to the world, precious little girl.
