You are so beautiful, to me
You are so beautiful, to me
Can’t you see, you’re everything I hoped for
Everything that I need
You are so beautiful, to me

I met sweet Andrew a little over a week ago when he was 4 days old! He looked so peaceful when he slept…which he did a lot of during our session. His mom is a 1st grade teacher, I was too for many years. It was fun to talk about teaching and think about my former students and co-workers.   Mary and Rob, Drew is beautiful. Thank you for letting me spend time with you in his first days. It is always a joy to meet a new family!

And my favorite from our time together:

 







Last weekend I had 2 newborn sessions. (What a wonderful way to spend a weekend!) Vyaan was 3 weeks, an old man in newborn photography terms, and Ollie, who was 3 days! There is something so special about meeting such a newbie! When I first set eyes on little Ollie, I couldn’t believe all of his dark and wispy hair. Gia and John, it was fun spending the morning with you. It is easy to see that Ollie is a loved little boy!





I had the joy of meeting Vyaan and his family last weekend. His mom contacted me when he was 2 weeks old and we quickly squeezed in a session before he was too old to do all of the peaceful and adorable newborn poses. Not only did we get some great poses but we captured his adorable smile! Vijay and Missy thank you for sharing Vyaan with me. I look forward to watching him grow this year!








I spent last Friday morning with Camden and his family. He was a mellow little boy as long as I let him keep his hands near his face. Luckily it looks cute when babies have their hands by their faces! Tim and Becky, thank you for sharing Camden with me. I look forward to watching him grow!

This past weekend I had the joy of meeting sweet baby Henry. At 3 weeks, we were a little nervous about how he would do during his debut photo shoot. Well, he was a natural. He made sleeping peacefully and being adorable look easy! Sarah and Travis it was fun to spend the morning with your new family. I look forward to seeing you all again in a few months!

I had the joy of meeting Luke and his family this past weekend. He was a little older than most of the newborns I photo but he did a great job! Smiles, bright eyes, and peaceful sleep, what an adorable little boy! Sora and Boram, thank you for sharing Luke with me, he’s beautiful! I look forward to watching him grow this year.

and feel the depth, the delight, the ecstasy of it,
