I have to start with his name.... IM IN LOVE! I have 2 boys and don't necessarily want another baby boy, but that name is tempting....

How I approach a newborn photography session.... My family photos and films are unstaged and undirected. But with newborn sessions, I tend to do some light directing.... Maybe one day I won't. But for now, it feels right and still feels authentic. I get to know the parents beforehand too so I can tailor it to their family and not be a cookie cutter session, so that helps too.

Forest's older sisters have a lot of personality, particularly Poppy. (all of her children's names are super cute!). Poppy is their middle child and she lets us know her mood by her facial expression ?

Forest was born at home. since he was her third baby, he should have been an easy home birth. But he was her most difficult! Its a long story and not mine to share, but the midwives were well equipped and mom is so grateful and has no regrets. I will say, it was a 3 day labor to get buddy out.

While right now, mama doesn't want to do that again, I love seeing clients have lots of babies ? I guess that's easy for me to say, I just get to capture them!
