Newborn Mania

When I first met Allison, we were, ahem, colleagues at a downtown restaurant, slinging burgers and earnestly working our tables for tips. Look at her sweet young family now!


Well hi there, little Lina Rachel!


Of all the shoots I'm privileged to be a part of, the newborn sessions capture me in a way nothing else can. Maybe it's my season of life at the moment, with the baby in my own belly growing and moving more each day and the anticipation this brings. Whatever the reason, I have been feeling an extra measure of blessing in the last week as my hard drive fills up with photographs of tiny shoulders, fingernails, and of course, those FEET.



What is it about a daddy's hands? So tender and protective and strong, playing with tiny toes, cradling his sweet firstborn daughter...





Welcome to parenthood, Allison and Travis, and thank you for allowing me to witness a few of these precious first moments with your perfect little girl. I'll have your complete portfolio of images up soon over at the website!
