A new baby is like the beginning of all things—wonder, hope, a dream of possibilities.

I was especially excited to meet this little baby for an in-home newborn session yesterday. Several weeks ago his parents and I met for coffee to discuss their desires for a maternity and newborn portrait session. Shortly after we met that evening, his mama was admitted to the hospital so I packed up my gear and we did the maternity session at the hospital of all places. Although it wasn’t our ideal location, it turned out beautifully (You can see it here).

I was so happy when they contacted me with the news that little Connor had arrived and I had the loveliest time capturing them as a family yesterday morning. I feel so honored to be a small part of this special time in their lives.
