Philadelphia Newborn Photographer | Mt. Airy | Charlie

Family

Remember the Wombat’s maternity session from last week?  Here’s the result!

The Wombat was a little boy – Charles Franklin.  He was due around Christmas and made it into the world on December 30th, just in time to ring in the new year with the family.

I got my hands on his wee hands about two weeks later at their home in Mt. Airy (w00t!).

Strangely, but perhaps not surprisingly, Carrie was agile and ready to get back to rowing ASAP.  I’m just going to say that she definitely didn’t have that baby.  My guess is a surrogate and a basketball.  I’m not judging but it would be great if she’d be honest with us so the rest of the new moms don’t feel awful about still being slugs 11 days (or months, in my case) later.

Charlie was an adorable little muffin.  A bright eyed, fluffy haired, awake little muffin.

Matt paced up and down the stairs and made laps around the living room umpteen times in an attempt to get Charlie to close those peepers.

Obviously we needed to represent Charlie’s roots.

Charlie is so wonderful and I’m thrilled to be able to watch him grow up around the corner!

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 ...
