Little Slugger, Part 2. ♥ { Maternity and Newborn Portraits }

Comments (3)

I visited Baby J., when he was just one week old. This was a special treat. I had photographed his gorgeous mom when she was still pregnant, and I’m just swooning over how I was able to continue mom’s story into baby’s story. This was perfect time to do some cute newborn poses and to record a precious and fleeting moment in time.

Bath time is bonding time. These little toes get some TLC.

It’s a shame that even though we spend so much time with our kids, there aren’t more pictures of us with the kids.

Eowyn and Kenny: A Long Journey ♥ {Dublin Maternity Photographer}

Comments (4)

What was so touching about Eowyn and Kenny was how long they waited for their new daughter. It was not just the usual nine months, but actually five long years. They called it a journey, and I was honored to have participated in one tiny step of the journey. The pride and love for such a long-awaited little person must be so enormous.
