Meet little Madison Grace. She just came into the world two days ago. She is precious. I already love her….she happens to be the daughter of some sweet friends of mine…

Oh, the miracle of childbirth. It gets me all emotional and weepy. It is so very amazing. Really. This little life grew in mama’s belly and is now a sweet little girl. A gift to a family. Danielle, Eric….she’s perfect. Absolutely perfect. Welcome to the world little Claire.

Charlotte, dear little Charlotte. You are beautiful. You have enough hair to hold a barrette already. Your little cheeks are squeezable. You have gorgeous little lipstick lips. I love it. You’re already a sweet little lovey!

I love documenting moments from a baby’s first day of life. The miracle of childbirth never gets old. God is amazing. Truly. These are our sweet friends and their little Luke. He’s precious…

Introducing little Kenna. She is brand spankin new. Her mommy and daddy are friends of mine and her daddy is a fantastic photographer. You can view his stuff here. We had to take a few pictures of little Kenna though when her daddy was not behind the camera. You know, a little evidence that daddy was actually at the hospital too. Kenna’s a precious little 8 pounder. Katrina and Josh, so glad she’s here and that her delivery went well. God is good. Here are a few from the hospital.

This is Ezra. Now really, what’s not to love? He’s precious and all cheeks and lips. Love it! I got to meet him when he was fresh fresh fresh…only one day old. I love taking pictures of little babies in the hospital and documenting those amazing moments.

What a handsome little guy. Congratulations Stephanie!

I was priviledged to meet a precious little girl this week. Only 1 and a half days old in these pictures, Miss Hailey. She is blessed to be born into an incredible family all the way around. I have very much loved getting to know this baby’s mama and grandma. Little Hailey is definitely a treasure!

I’ve really enjoyed photographing babies in the hospital when they are fresh, fresh, FRESH! Mama stays in her bed and in her hospital gown. She doesn’t have to get all prettied up because she looks quite wonderful for just having delivered a child. I just come in and take a few shots to document the whole miraculous event and then I’m off. If you’d like more details on hospital photo shoots click here, then go to my q & a page.

Well, this morning I got to meet little miss Ella June. She’s precious and brand stinkin new. She’s only one day old. What a treat to get to go to the hospital and meet this little miss and her parents. Congratulations! You two have a sweet one on your hands. Enjoy her. Here are a few from our shoot this morning.
