What a fun baby photo session!  Full of laughter and a few comments on how University of Michigan was going to stomp MSU….well…I was wrong.  SIGH!  I figured the least I could do was provide you both with a few sneak peeks of precious baby C.  He is an absolute precious gift.  All my best to the both of you!

I am always amazed when the newborn that I photographed  6 months ago returns to the studio sitting up..giggling and has a personality all of it’s own.  They grow up so very quickly.  Embrace those sleepless nights, cuddle them as much as you possibly can and smile at every precious moment for those are the big things.  You will look back years from now and be shocked at how fast the time flew by.

Thank you so very much for bringing your precious daughter into the studio.  It was so nice meeting all of you!!!

the mother is also born.
She never existed before.
The woman existed, but the mother, never.

Love is a symbol of eternity.  It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end.  ~Author Unknown

I step behind my camera and all things going on in my life  seem to fade away.  At first I thought perhaps it was because I was lost in my art….now I realize it wasn’t that but I was lost in that moment.  The moment when I see a mom or a dad with such love in their eyes holding their newborn baby.  It takes me to such a wonderful place.  To relive the moments we have felt as new parents all over again.  The sleepless nights, the fears of not doing things correctly, the feeling of knowing that there is this tiny individual in your life now that depends on you 24/7, the joy of giving birth, the moments when you gaze at your baby sleeping….  Yes, I have said it before and I will say it again.  I have the best job in the world.  Not only do my clients allow me to capture such a beautiful time in their lives…they help me…slip away to a place of viewing life through a lens that is filled with love.  Thanks!
