Emory’s Newborn Session

As always, I enjoyed having the chance to photograph a baby girl and bring out all of my flowers and ruffles and headbands. A little backstory on how I met her family:

Two years ago I wanted to start a project on adoption. I contacted the Henderson family to see if they were interested in having me come and document their adoption. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to capture that process as it ended up taking place out of state.

It's always encouraging when you see returning clients in the studio. I first met Katie, Allison Rae's mama, when she taught one of our three boys in elementary school.

It's amazing to me when two siblings look nothing alike, but that was not the case with these two. Allison Rae reminds me so much of her big sister!

Adaline’s Newborn Session

On November 12 I attended the Mommy Expo, hosted by Lexington Mommy (you can check out my table here). While I was there Adaline's mom, Jackie, stopped by and picked up a business card. Two weeks later she booked a newborn session and I was so pleased to be able to photograph her family. After photographing a ton of boys, I was looking forward to having a girl in the studio.
