There is a special place in my heart for photographing families in their own home with their new addition. In the brief time I am there, I get an inside peek into their world as it is now. Secure, but unknown. New, yet familiar. With little Josie’s arrival, their unit is now complete as a party of five. I love the raw emotion of watching a family interact together while I catch their private moments, toddler tantrums, and inside jokes. Not only have they changed the “population sign” in their small town, they have changed the way I view the world by watching them just be who they are, embracing new life, bonding as a family, and experiencing life as it is…














What a beautiful gift you gave this family! Pure loveliness..and memories they’ll treasure forever!
