Mid-way through this shoot, Stella got hungry. Linda moved to go to the other room, but I stopped her.

“Stay here and let me take photos,” I said. “Just for you. You’ll want to remember this.” Linda was hesitant, but her husband was supportive and encouraging (great guy!) and so she stayed in the living room and let me snap away while Stella ate. The last photo above is Stella right after – babies are so hilarious with how much they loooove milk! That is one really happy little face.

I won’t show those shots here, because they’re personal, but I keep going back to peek at them; they make me tear up and catch my breath every time. I encourage every new mom have photos taken while breastfeeding. They’ll be cherished memories for years to come, even if you only keep them to yourself.

We women are amazing.

We got together just after Ellis turned 1 for a fun shoot both at home and in the park. Ellis has the best hair, right? I loved photographing him reading with Dad!

“Aw, hey guys. Just chillin’.”

C. and J. hired me to do a maternity shoot with them back in July 2011, and I got to visit them again for a new baby shoot. They made an excellent baby.

p.s. They framed this print from our last shoot and hung it in the nursery. It made me happy.

This tiny girl has dreamy, old soul eyes and two new parents that are so visibly in love with their new daughter. We took photos in their apartment on a day when it was a bit too cold and rainy to go outdoors. The gray clouds outside lent themselves well to a giving this whole shoot a cozy light.

Julie and Sarah wanted to give their folks photos of themselves, so we took to Central Park where these two sisters and I had a fun time running around taking awesome photos (including some wonderfully silly ones!)

Happy New Year! Here’s a shoot I did on Jane’s Carousel. Have you been? It’s great fun!

SUCH excellent smiles in this shoot! I have never meet a baby so gregarious. And his sister was a giant goofy ham, which I adored… it got her in trouble a few times!

This was this little guy’s first time walking like this for such an extended period of time. He was excited to really use his legs, and I was thrilled to capture it! Look how happy and proud he is! (I’ll be he slept well that night.) We had such a good time rolling around in the leaves at the park, and mom and dad were fun to hang out with, too. I have the best job!
