Last week I spent the morning with such a wonderful family! As soon as I walked in I felt so welcomed – I felt like I had known them forever. It’s always so exciting to me when I get to share in the first few memories of a new family as they welcome their newest blessing. Watching the love siblings have for this new baby, watching parents watch their kids, watching the gift they all embrace together is such an honor. This family was no exception – it really was a beautiful thing.

One of the best parts of this session was watching the way Rowan and Kyla are the best of friends. They actually really reminded me of my two kids! We spent some time reading books and telling stories and then we headed outside for a few games of Red-light — Green-light! It didn’t take long for the two of them to catch on and before I knew it they were too quick for me. Then we headed in and I got some quiet time with sweet baby Maeve. Lauren and Mike were saying how she hadn’t been that awake, ever! That is always the way isn’t it – when we want them to sleep they are awake and when we want them to be awake they are asleep! The three kiddos were so great – I loved getting to spend time with each of them. With sweet faces like these, how can you blame me!

and one more makes three..

can you hear the giggle!?

What of the greatest blessings I received last fall was when I was asked to decorate the office at the Essex County OBGYN’s office in Danvers, MA. I went to their practice with both of my pregnancies and I just adore everyone there. When clients call me and tell me they found my name through that display it is such a great connection! Tracy is one of those patients who saw my work there and decided to call. We both agree their practice is just wonderful. I am grateful they have given me the gift of sharing so many amazing people with me! As if Tracy wasn’t wonderful enough, wait until you see her precious daughters face…. Without further a delay, meet Ms. Abby. This beautiful Mom has been very patient a few extra days for her sneak peek! Sorry Mom!

This sweet little face sure gave me a run for my money! Her Mommy was so fantastic and filled her little belly just before I got there. Abby was super sleepy and she got all cozy as soon as I set up and let me shoot away for a solid 15 minutes before she realized she was in a photo shoot! She was a touch over the age I typically shoot newborns (14 days and younger) so I knew she’d need a little extra love but I had no idea just how awake her sweet little face could stay! Sleepy newborn shots are some of the favorite shots my clients ask for so when I get a little peanut like this who wants to stay awake, I actually kind of enjoy the change of pace Don’t get me wrong, I adore the sleepy poses too, but when I have beautiful eyes like this little lady, it adds a bit of excitement! She sure has a personality of her own already. Abby knew what she wanted to do and that was that – I even tried all my tricks — she was stubborn, couldn’t miss a beat! I told Tracy she might have her hands full in about 13 years!

Thank you for spending your morning with me Tracy and Abby. We know this is a surprise for Daddy so we hope he doesn’t sneak a peek just yet! I can’t wait to show you the rest of your gallery.. We will be in touch soon!

Much Love,

Yesterday morning I had the pleasure of meeting the nephew of one of my best college girlfriends, Kristen’s. There is no greater honor than my friends passing along my name to share in family memories of those who they love. A few months ago Kristen purchased a gift certificate for a newborn session as their baby shower gift (**NOTE!!!! WE LOVE GIVING GIFT CERTIFICATES for gifts!! Its the gift of memories — way better than an outfit, right?!) Anyways, Last week Kristen’s brother Erich and his wife Emilie emailed me to say their new little tiny blessing had arrived. Lucky for me I had just picked up a few new newborn props I was dying to use! The little pint of peanuts was a dream! He didn’t make a peep for almost he entire session – He let me move him around, change out blankets, switch props with only one break for a feeding and I think he is the first newborn that didn’t pee on anything! Way to go kid – that’s impressive!

Here are a few favorites from the morning..

Right on cue! Second click of the day and this is what I got

something so sweet about tiny little fingers

new scale + adorable newborn = perfect.

antique little carriage -- just his size!

Erich and Emilie – Thank you for sharing your new little blessing with me. He is beautiful and picked incredible parents. We will be in touch soon when the rest of your gallery is ready!

Much Love,

I was lucky enough to meet this family two years ago. When they made the jump from three, to four. Just a few weeks ago they made the jump again, from four to five little blessings. I cant’ believe how fast they are growing up. It is an honor and a priviledge to watch my clients families grow up right in front of my eyes and my camera. Just one of the gazillion reasons I love my job. I am blessed.

Thank you for sharing your morning with me Heney’s! As always it was fantastic — Looking forward to seeing you again soon!
