Beautiful.

November 25, 2009

I was on my way home from an incredible Newborn Photography workshop, Baby as Art in San Diego. My head was still swimming with inspiration, and I couldn’t wait to have the opportunity to photograph my next newborn. I sat down on the plane, next to a man who wasn’t even supposed to be there — he had graciously given up his seat so that a mother could sit with her sons. I sat there, gazing through the book of incredible newborn photography that I had just been given, chatting about photography and my amazing experience. And little did I know it but his friends just had a baby 2 days prior, back home in Atlanta. My face dropped and I could barely get the words out – and he was already emailing his friends, telling them all about me, and would they be interested in a Session. A few moments later it was set, and I was over the moon.

Here she is, beautiful “Baby L”. I photographed her yesterday, only 9 days old. She was the perfect little newborn model, snoozing through the entire Session. We got tons of amazing images, but I couldn’t wait to post my favorite few so her sweet mom and dad could have a “sneak peek”. Thanks again, Julie and John, for welcoming me into your home, and giving me the opportunity to capture the newness of your beautiful Gift from Heaven.

    Thank you so much for capturing our sweet Lily Kate. We enjoyed having you in our home. John and I were amazed at how you handled our daughter and kept her so still and quiet. I wish I could have you come over for the night time feedings! We can not express how much it meant to us. These photos will be treasured for a lifetime. We cannot wait to have you back for additional sessions in the future! I would highly recommend you! Thanks again for the amazing photos! You are truly talented!
