If you haven’t figured it out – she’s got EVERYONE wrapped around that little finger!!

Isn’t she just ADORABLE!?

Stephanie – THANK YOU so much for asking me to join you in celebrating your little girl!!

Stephanie had a vision for her little girl’s FIRST birthday party!!

She wanted blue skies. White clouds. The rafters of their new home. We rescheduled because of rain and the rafters not being done.

But the day we did get was a PERFECT one!!

THAT SWEET FACE!!

I ADORE that shot – everyone clapping and celebrating their favorite little sister!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY GIRL!!

Stay tuned for the rest of her party!

She is one of the happiest little girls I know!!

That curly hair!!

Angie & Tim – thank you SO MUCH for asking me into your lives over the past few years!!

I ALWAYS look

I’ve been taking Angie & Tim’s family photos for 4 years!!

We missed a maternity session while this beautiful baby was still brewing – but I did get to see her in all her squishy new-baby glory!!

He is SUCH a great big brother!!

GAH!!! SHE IS SO SQUISHY!!

OH MY GOODNESS!!!

I’ve got more squishy goodness to show you – TOMORROW!!

I had stopped at the waterfall on my way to their session to make sure it was safe. You might remember that the beginning of July was SO VERY RAINY!!

It was PERFECT!!

They are an absolute DREAM to work with!?

I still can’t believe that this waterfall is in Waverly and not Hawaii!!

GORGEOUS!!

We had their session on a Thursday in mid-July – and Melissa – who wasn’t due until mid-August – delivered their baby girl on MONDAY. MONDAY!!

I was SO happy we were able to schedule their session and make it happen before their daughter made her arrival!

Melissa & Spencer – THANK YOU SO MUCH for getting IN the water and being one of my FAVORITE couples to photograph!!

I can’t WAIT to meet that baby girl of yours!!

I’ve been taking photos of Melissa for well over TEN years!!

I was SO excited when I found out she was pregnant! I immediately began thinking of what their maternity photos would look like!

PERFECTION!!!

SERIOUSLY!! They are an absolute DREAM to photograph!

Working with Melissa and Spencer always fuels my creativity!!

We had a hard time finding a date that worked for both of us – but thankfully we found a Thursday evening that worked for both of us!

I knew I could count on Melissa & Spencer to say YES about my next request!!

WATERFALL MATERNITY PHOTOS!!

ISN’T SHE GORGEOUS!?

I’ve got more to show you – so stay tuned!!

STUNNING!!

THAT BLACK & WHITE ON THE RIGHT!! GORGEOUS!!

Cait – thank you SO MUCH for getting in the water!! They turned out PERFECTLY!

Cait & Corey – I am SO happy for you!! THANK YOU for spending the evening with me!

You might remember Cait & Corey! I photographed their wedding in September!!

GORGEOUS!!

Isn’t this location SO DREAMY!?

Emotional photography is my favorite photography!!

Courtney has a baby in her arms. HER BABY!! Is this really real!?

Little girl – you are SO loved and SO wanted!!

Those are Courtney’s shoes from when she was a baby!!

THOSE CHEEKS!!

Chubby babies are the BEST babies!! Look at those arm rolls!

Dave – holding his baby girl. It’s REALLY REAL!!

THE LOVE IN THAT PHOTO!!

They’ve been waiting YEARS for this!!

Dave & Courtney – I am SO happy for you both. I am so honored to pray with you throughout this journey.

I can’t WAIT to see you again soon!!

I met Courtney & Dave a few years ago – they are friends with Stephanie and loved her photos!

I soon discovered that they were praying for a baby. I put them on my list and have been praying and trusting with them.

I met them at a new creek for their yearly photos last September. A few days – maybe a week – later – she messaged me. GUESS WHAT!?

l cried. They were pregnant. I cried and thanked God.

LOOK AT THOSE SMILES!!

She was the most awake and alert baby I’ve had yet! She is absolutely GORGEOUS!

THOSE SHOTS!!!

OH MY HEART!

Dad holding her little hand – THE SWEETEST!!

I LOVE becoming friends with the people I photograph. I love even more praying for you. Crying with you. Waiting with you. Rejoicing with you.

Stay tuned – because I’ve got more to show you of this sweet girl and her momma and dad!
