I (obviously) had a great time with Vyvan & Ben at this beautiful location in the beautiful light!

My long-time friend, Regina, gave birth on Mother’s Day, and I was lucky enough to document the delivery of her beautiful baby girl, Stella. I can’t wait to hold baby Stella again and shoot her newborn photos in a few days!

Regina’s mother and daughter…

Her husband, Juan, helping her through the pushes. I loved watching how amazingly sweet he was with her. She pushed on all fours, and I did get some “graphic” shots, but I’ll keep those just for them.

Margot and Jon had their baby boy, Henry! A HUGE 9lbs 9oz, and I thought my 8 1/2lb boys were big! He was such a sweetie, but since I was recovering from a cold (recovering, I’d never shoot an infant while sick) I had Spencer come along to do all the posing under my direction from afar. If you’ve done a newborn session with me you know how hands on I am, so it was SO difficult not to snuggle with him, but at least I got to see him and take these photos. Margot and Jon, it has been such an honor to be there for some of the most important events in your life these last few years. You are amazing people, and Henry is very lucky to have you both as parents. xo

It was a little bright, but I wanted to get a family photo on their porch, just like at their maternity session.

So sweet. And, you can see a few of their wedding pictures I took up on their wall.
