I have been photographing Sweet P and her family since she was 3 months old. It has been a joy to watch her grow and get to know her fun family.
I was thrilled to celebrate her birthday but it is always so bitter sweet heading to that last session.
Happy birthday, sweet girl ;] Tell mama you are ready to be a big sister now ;]
When I started my project with Rachel, I had hoped that I would be available to photograph her birth if she didn't already hire a photographer. I got a text last Friday that read "Well, I'm in labor!" while I was a few hours out of town. DRAT. Not gonna be able to make it.
I texted her as I was putting my girls to bed asking how she was doing and if her sweet boy had made his appearance yet. And then I got "the call"
I made sure my battery was charged, formatted memory cards, hopped in my cards, turned on this song, and prayed over my sweet client/friend's labor
This was her first labor as her daughter, Dani, was a scheduled csection. And while Rachel's story isn't mine to tell, I wanted this birth desperately for her.
I walked in to their home, to the familiar yet foreign sounds of a woman laboring and took my seat as I watched a true miracle unfold before me.
Rachel pushed for three and a half hours, and any time I felt her moral, or even mine, I would just pray "There is power, in the name of Jesus, to break every chain..." and watched Him work beautifully through this mama.
Thank you, Rachel, Craig, and the rest of your sweet family for allowing me to be a part of your son's entrance into the world. It's something I will never forget.
Rachel & Max 2 days new:
Another sweet girl that I've had the pleasure of photographing this past year is sweet little Caroline. She has always been a ham, RIDICULOUSLY photogenic, and makes me giggle during every session.
She celebrated her birthday last month and was thrilled I was able to photograph her this month, little miss attitude ;]
Happy Birthday (and happy nurs-aversary!!) Caroline & Bianca!
