Philadelphia Family Photographer | 1 Year | Clara

Family

Charlotte arrived a few years back.  Now I’m not saying that she’s an obsolete model, but version 2.0 just celebrated her first birthday.  Feature-wise, Charlotte can walk and talk.  Clara, on the other hand, crawls and climbs like it’s her job and offers up the most adorable “Teek Ku” when you give her something.

I may have already set plans in motion for her betrothal to my child.  It seems only right since they were born on the exact same day, only two hours apart.

We played with the whole family at their Graduate Hospital home.  Charlotte kindly let us use her bed for snuggles and tickles.  A family photoshoot is the perfect time for a ticklefest!

And when you have a roofdeck with these kinds of views, it’s just a sin not to use them!

I love the quiet moments of Clara with mama Kelly in the nursery.

It’s pretty impossible to resist a baby in a tutu with a cake (a funfetti giant cupcake cake with multicolored sprinkles, in case you were wondering).  The curiosity, joy, and downright devastation is perfection.

Happy birthday, little Clara.  I look forward to having you as a daughter-in-law someday!

Meet Maggie.  Maggie is the one week old little peanut of Betsy and Steve.  They graciously let me come over and spend time with her last week. When Betsy first told me about the schedule they have of waking her every couple hours during the day, I thought she was a little crazy.  Then I realized that this kid really has mixed up day and night.  She wanted to sleep the entire time I was there.  The only time she made a peep was when we were poking at her to keep her from going over her allotted daytime nap. Maggie was born 1 week late.  Betsy’s sister had come to town with the mission to walk this baby out.  They planned a sight ...

Philadelphia Birth and Newborn Photographer | Lewis
I’m still wrapping my head around little Lewis’ birth.  It was a moving experience beyond anything else I’ve ever photographed. Christina went into the hospital a few days after her due date and began the induction process.  Her husband, Eli, and I had been texting all day to get updates on the situation.  I went to bed that night with my clothes on.  My camera had been in the car and ready for the past two weeks. At 12:12am I got the text to come in.  “8cm dilated.  Things happening.”  I was already out the door and on my way when he sent the next one, “Drive carefully.  Things are happening, but not HAPPENING!!!  Ok?”  I was minutes a ...
