Finn is (going to be) a big brother!

I took these photographs of Finley last month, when something very exciting was happening.

Finley was getting ready to become a big brother.

Last weekend, Finn and his family welcomed his little sister into the world!!! Stay tuned for some gorgeous photographs of these two angels.

Congratulations Finn and family!

Baby Caleb Turns One!

I've known Baby Caleb since he was just a twinkle in his mama Niko's eye.



That's because I've known mama Niko practically since she was a girl. 

A photo I took 10 years ago:



I know, she looks exactly the same, so you will have to trust me on this one.

I had the amazing privilege of documenting Niko's pregnancy with Baby Caleb in this Story Slide Show:

Next, I got to follow Baby Caleb's amazing first year. 

Here's one more photo, of Caleb with his Daddy. 




I can't wait for what's next.

Baby R, 7 1/2 weeks

For all you Baby R fans out there (if you aren't one yet, you will be momentarily) here are some recent images.








Yes, she is just as sweet and peaceful as she looks in these photos. Congratulations again, beautiful family!

Honeymooning

In addition to having a beautiful wedding, we had an amazing honeymoon in Hawaii. The above picture is from near Mauna Kea, on the big island.

One of the many thing that made our honeymoon amazing was that lots of our friends and family pitched in to make it work.  

Unbelievably, they also raised money for charity in the process. That's because we set up our registry through the I Do Foundation which partners with various groups so that each time someone purchases a gift through your registry, a percentage of the amount is donated to the charities of your choice. 

I Do partners with Traveler's Joy, which allows guests to put money toward your honeymoon. 

I highly recommend both!

Little F, 11 months old

Little F has grown up so much since our last photo shoot!



In the last six months, he's turned into an (almost) walking, (kind of) talking, cheerio-eating little boy.

F and his family are so much fun to hang out with. Can't wait until the next time!

A Very Special Family

This is Little S. She, and her family, are very special to me.



I've known S's parents for about a decade, since before they even began dating! After they got married, and later got pregnant, they asked if I would shoot some pregnancy photos for them. It was the beginning of an amazing photographic relationship.

The photo above is from two years ago. Want to know what's happened since? Check it out:

As Promised

Here are just a few of the amazing photographs of our wedding, taken by the fabulous Anna Kuperberg:








I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to work with Anna. She is an incredibly talented photographer from whom I draw a great deal of inspiration. Thank you so much, Anna!
