Maria & Ryan | couples

When couples still have their photos taken each year for holiday cards, it makes me soo happy!  Typically the last time many of us had our pictures taken was our wedding day.  Then the next time is usually your first child. 

From year to year, so many things change.  You grow, your life evolves and taking a quick hour out of your day to make a few memories is always worth it!  I loved spending time with Maria and Ryan walking through the snow, hiking through the trails and laughing and getting to know each other.  What a beautiful couple who love their life!  Thank you so much for taking the time to make some memories with me!

Happy Holidays!

Ardan Family | Birth Story

One of my favorite things in life, is the beauty and joy in an expecting mother.  The connection between mother and child is so beautiful.  The journey your body has taken over the past months and all that is yet to come, is a connection like nothing else.  The anticipation, wondering, dreaming and love they feel is incredible; I am always amazed by it.  There is a simple sweetness in being able to create life.

I am incredibly blessed to be a part of something this special!  The intimacy of a birth and the raw emotion is not easy to share with just anyone.  Its been wonderful to connect with this family over the past few months and the trust they have for me to capture a life event such as this, is overwhelmingly special!  I can't thank them enough for allowing me to be a part of their journey.

Congratulations Ardans Family!  Addie is absolutely perfect!
