This blog post is very special to me. The best part of being a photographer is the connection that I get to make with families. And this family will always be precious to me – they were one of the first to allow me into the delivery room to capture the first moments of their daughter’s life and then asked me back to photograph their sweet baby girl throughout her first year. Moments like these cannot be replaced and I feel so privileged to be able to capture them for the families who entrust me with their precious new babies!! Here are the highlights from her first year, starting with her entrance to the world!
This was the most amazing series to capture – Daddy wanted to deliver his own daughter….and the doctor said yes!!
Mommy’s first look did not disappoint:
And finally the 3 month, 6 month, and 12 month cake smash collage:
You’ve grown so much this year, Elyse – and it has been awesome to watch!!

Meet Kinley – a beautiful new baby girl with a beautiful name! She was one of my best little sleepers and I was so excited to use some of my newest finds with her.

Ask any photographer and they will tell you that the more challenging ages to photograph children are about 3-4 months old and then about two years old. This family session was double the challenge with BOTH those ages! Now, I have a two year old who lives in my house, so I know exactly how to work with that age and pulled out all my usual tricks. I first photographed him about a year ago and then his baby sister right after she was born – and we put up with all the pouts in order to get some really sweet family beach photos. Enjoy your sneak peek!!

Last weekend, I had the chance to head out to the beach and photograph this expecting momma. She’s due to have her princess in about three weeks, so we joked quite a bit about the fact that I’ve had THREE mommas who have given birth the night of or day after our session! (Seriously!) But it was a beautiful night for portraits and we captured some gorgeous images of her baby belly!

Every birth is amazing – no matter the length, the type, the place, or the circumstance. My favorite part of being a birth photographer is that every single birth story is different. It’s always fresh and new and exciting…and beautiful. Witnessing the moments before and right after a new life is a true honor – and this one was no different.
