I love working with first-time parents. During their maternity session, there is so much wonder, hope and enthusiasm. When I come back a few months later, I can see on their faces so much excitement, so much joy and sometimes a bit of exhaustion. They’re usually in a sleep-deprived daze, just living from one feeding to the next. But best of all , you can tell that they are so flooded with pure bliss and love for this tiny, miraculous creature. It is so fun to sit and talk with them, hearing their stories about how the baby is sleeping, birthing experiences, the baby’s uniqueness, etc.
Luckily for these parents, their baby has been sleeping very well…except for today. Although he was content as could be, Baby J had no interest in sleeping, which is one reason why I book several hours for newborn sessions. I was thrilled to photograph such a beautiful, loving family.
Here is to many years full of love, laughter and an abundance of blessings.
Here are a few of my favorites from our maternity session from November:
