i love getting a peek into the lives of brand new families. i love capturing some of their sweet new memories as new parents. and this family has been a family of three for three months! if there is anything that this family loves more than one another, it is a relaxing picnic. tucked under a beautiful summer tree on a gorgeous quilt, this stunning family had some of the sweetest moments. between cuddling their baby girl and stealing kisses, my heart simply melted as i spent my summer saturday morning with them. not only is this family simply beautiful, but they are so kind and caring. just the way they cuddle, rocked and kissed their new baby girl shows me just how much they adore her. and she adores them just as much. before we knew it, she was fast asleep on her stunning momma’s shoulder…all cozy just where she wanted to be.
thank you so much {g} family for spending a wonderful summer morning with me. it’s the simple way that you look and laugh with one another that tells me your family is simply blissful and happy. i am so excited to give you this family collection of photographs that documents you simply being you. you had some of the sweetest moments as a new family of three, with a lifetime of sweet moments in the years ahead.

this tiny boy has been keeping us on our toes for weeks! his parents have been eagerly awaiting his arrival, and i have been checking my phone for that text message that says, “he is here!” about a million times a day. when i photographed this couple during their baby bump session, i remember this mama-to-be telling me how incredibly excited her husband was to meet their first son. she told me he will probably go crazy if she goes past her due date, because he is counting the days until they become a family of three. and this little sweet pea definitely made them wait…2 whole extra weeks to be exact! but he was most definitely worth the wait! it always amazes me how, in one moment, a guy and a girl become parents. and what amazes me even more is how beautiful this mommy and daddy are at being parents. when i arrived at the hospital, they had officially been parents for 9 hours, and they were perfect at it. it’s as if, as soon as their son arrived, their lives were complete. and i am beyond thrilled that i could photograph such a timeless moment with them. the more i look at this collection, the more i tear up.
thank you so much {v} family of three! thank you for inviting me to photograph one of the best days of your life together. not only was your day beautiful, but your new family of three is simply stunning. watching you as brand new parents was heartwarming and i am so excited for this beautiful new chapter in your lives. your son is so incredible and perfect. he is extremely blessed to have two of the best parents and i am so happy to give you this collection of photos that documents the very first day of his very happy life. i wish you many more happy days and i hope i can be there to photograph even more of your amazing new life and happiest of moments as a family of three.

i have waited seven months to meet this amazing couple and…they were definitely worth the wait! as a photographer, i often leave a session and think, “wow, we rocked that one!” and this was one of those sessions. from the moment i met this gorgeous couple on sunday, they were all smiles, full of laughter, and ready to capture some of their sweetest moments of being engaged. as we walked around old town, we chatted about everything from her envious tropical trip she just got home from to his amazing job as a soccer trainer {check him out here, he is awesome!}. i found myself smiling and laughing more than photographing, and instantly wanted to be friends with them! the smiles continued as i was editing their collection…ever photo they took is pure perfection and full of so much love. i was simply giddy as i was putting together their final engagement collection and my heart melted every time this wife-to-be emailed me, gushing over her sneak previews!
thank you so much z + k, for one of the funnest sessions i have photographed. not only are you a stunning couple, but you are so darn amazing together! just watching you laugh with one another, i know you life together is going to be full of so much love, laughter and happiness. i am so incredibly excited for you to get married and i wish you many many years of bliss. i hope you love your summer engagement collection just as much as i loved photographing it with you! you rocked it!

more than ever, lifestyle newborn sessions have become my favorite sessions to photograph. there is something about meeting a sweet little newborn and their brand new mommy and daddy that is so incredibly special. and this sweet new family of three was particularly memorable. when i first met this new mommy on their session day, she told me that they got really lucky with their new son…at only twelve days old, he was already so perfect! she was so right. he cried for maybe 30 seconds during his session and he was quite the baby model, always posing perfectly and simply being charming. his parents aren’t the only ones who are lucky, but this little boy is incredibly blessed as well. he has two of the sweetest and fun parents a little boy could dream for. they are kind, caring, and love their new little son with all their hearts.
thank you so much {d} family for welcoming me into your beautiful home for a wonderful session. your little guy couldn’t be more perfect and you two simply glow as brand new parents! i hope you enjoy your newborn collection just as much as i enjoyed photographing it with you! and, as he grows and grows, i hope to photograph more of your special moments! enjoy every moment as a new family of three!

when i got an email from a girl wanting to book a photo session for her and her newly graduated best friend, i knew i had to accept! if there is anything that i love more than photography sessions, it is “just because” sessions. i love it when people decide to document special moments in their lives through photographs because moments come and go, but photographs can be savored forever. from the moment these ladies arrived to their session, i knew we were going to have a memorable session. between fits of laughter and learning how they met and became the best of friends, i just adored spending the morning with these stunning besties. and their friendship is so heart-warming.
thank you so much {a} + {d} for such a memorable summer session. i genuinely enjoyed working with you both and capturing some of your sweetest friend moments in photographs. there are a lot of wonderful things in life, but having a best friend is one of the most special things. you two are the sweetest and i am so excited to share your best friend collection that documents everything that best friends should be. i hope you enjoy these photographs for years to come and love them just as much as i loved photographing them!
