Ethan's Newborn Session

I hope everyone is having an excellent Thursday and looking forward to Friday! I got to spend my Thursday morning cuddling with sweet little Ethan. It's been a few months since I've photographed a newborn, and boy did I forget how bad the baby fever is that follows! We started the session focusing on the cute little poses, but towards the end I decided that I really wanted to capture some of the love that was floating all around the house. These new parents are clearly head-over-heals in love with their precious baby boy, so I just had to show some of that in the photos. And wouldn't you know it, those ended up being my favorites! :) 

Enjoy the sneak peek! 

I just swoon over tender moments like this <3 Daddy trying to calm his baby boy down.

Who doesn't love a baby-mohawk?? 

Ricky & Sue: Engaged!

Ricky and Sue are not only an incredible couple, but they also happen to be good friends of ours. They, like so many other couples we know, met online. The more couples I meet who have met this way, I start to wonder "if I was single, how would I meet someone?" Once you are out of school and in the "real world," it really isn't easy to meet new people. Even as a couple, we are constantly wanting to meet more couples our age with similar interests, but it's just not that easy. Most people don't want to meet their future spouse in a bar, and I imagine it's rare meeting someone you could fall in love with at work..so I believe in the online market 100%.

Between wedding planning and having just purchased a new home, they are busy bees right now. Thankfully she was able to squeeze in an e-session on her day off for MLK day yesterday. I hope you love the photos as much as I do! <3

Gary & Jane: Engaged!

Gary, an engineer, & Jane, an accountant, have been together for about a year now and they are eager to start their lives together. They met online through a dating site (not the first couple I've photographed to have great results from one of these sites, by the way!) and even though she lives in NY and he lives here, they have this wedding ready to go! We wish that we could be at their NY wedding in March, but we know it will be an absolutely beautiful one. They are mixing American and Chinese traditions into the ceremony, and I can't wait to see what their photographer captures that day. Lucky for us she will be moving here once they get married, so hopefully they will come to us when they're ready to start a family! :)

I hope you two had as much fun as I did during your session. Enjoy your sneak peek!
