There is something special that changes in your heart when your dear friends have a baby.

You know how much their family is evolving and growing together, and how much this little one is upending their normal and inventing a new world for them.

It’s an honor to be invited in to document this stage in life, especially for a mom who is used to being behind the camera. Babies grow so fast and she deserves photographs of her and her first tiny baby! These are the first glimpses she will have of herself as a mother. They will become sacred.

I wonder what kind of memories these portraits will bring back for her when Amelia is five, ten, fifteen years old. What memories will be the ones that remain? Definitely love. We know that already.
