Last week, I met a very special little person…Miss Bellamy Cate! Bellamy was born on January 22nd at 11:42 am…all 6 lbs, 19 inches and tons of hair! I only thought Felicity had a lot of hair. And much as I expected, this beautiful little girl had her parents wrapped around her little fingers. Remember this shot between mother and daughter in the nursery that I posted on Sunday. Unlike a lot of newborn sessions you see floating around the internet, my sessions tend to be less about capturing the perfect newborn portrait and more about witnessing two people fall in love all over again. I hope that love is reflected in these shots. Starting here…one of my favorite shots. I also have a vertical version of this photo and I love them both. Or this moment between a daddy and his daughter. Watching this couple together before Bellamy’s arrival, I know how much love this man has for his wife. However, the love he has for his daughter is more precious than gold. Bellamy is one lucky little girl to be born into such a loving family. You know, if you think about it…that’s all any baby really needs…love. Sure, it helps if you have a place for the baby to sleep, food for the baby to eat (aka mother’s milk), and a ton of diapers and wipes…but looking at my own child, I know that love is all she ever really needs. Bellamy has that part covered! With all that said, Todd and Kristie – congratulations! You guys are already incredible parents and I am looking forward to watching Bellamy grow up through my viewfinder. Enjoy the snuggles, soak in all the tears because one day, you’ll wish you could rewind life and replay some of the most exhausting and incredible moments of your life. Until next time,
