in-home newborn - baby E

Each new in-home session I do - becomes my favorite session I’ve done. 😅

Honestly I love these sessions so much. They feel so natural and tender. And although they feel like chaos in the moment (the dad at the end of this session sighed and went “well that went horribly” - spoiler alert: it didn’t), these are the priceless times to capture.

This family is absolutely one of my favorites (am I allowed to have favorites??).

When we did this session at the end of the summer they were patiently awaiting the arrival of two (!!) babies. They have so much love and I know it’s only growing exponentially. (Spoiler alert - this mama is a SUPERHERO and she ended up carrying both babies full term and delivered ON their due date 😱)

A few years back it seemed like every summer was spent wedding planning with different friends of mine, and getting the opportunity to take engagement photos of them with their lovers. Fast forward a few years, and the families are starting! Mei is a nature-lovin’, crafty, take no crap type lady and I love every bit of her. Honored to photograph her in this cute-as-can-be state of pregnancy, and excited to meet the little one she’s creating.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - give me all the babies, all of the time.

But for real - these in-home sessions are hands down my favorite. They always feel true and natural and I LOVE that. Home is where the heart is.

B family

These guys are the definition of family. Big sister is mini-mom, helping wrangle those little brothers of hers. Dad is quick on his feet with distractions and ideas to keep everyone happy. And mom is the glue - obviously. I’ve known mom since elementary school, HER mom was actually my third grade teacher. So watching this little family grow and flourish is just beautiful.

R family

Back again! Alex has been one of my best friends for…15 years? Holy wow. Seeing her as a mother of two is a pleasure, she is exactly in her element. That goes for her husband, Dan, as well - they’re both amazing caretakers and givers, and their littles are lucky to have them. (Heck - she’s even listed as my ‘mother’ on facebook, and I don’t plan on changing that…ever)

I’m petitioning for this baby to hold a TED talk to all other babies - on how to act in front of a camera. She was the cutest, the smiliest, the flirtiest little gal, she made my job a breeze! And mom had some pretty great styling to put the cherry on top of an amazing one year session. :)
