Amber | Maternity

I had the hardest time choosing which images to share from Amber’s maternity session. I may be biased, but I just loved SO many of them. Aunt Heather is SO excited to meet you Charlie!

Lenora | Newborn

Lenora and her big sister Gretchen were simply perfect for our session together. I joked that from now on when someone wants to include their fur baby in the session I will just have Gretchen come in and pose with baby then head swap their dog’s face. 😂

Abrielle & Quinn | Newborn

I am 100% sure that I “over shared” this newborn session on Facebook. So I am DEFINITELY taking the opportunity to share even more here. Abrielle & Quinn arrived 6 weeks early. After powering through a NICU stay these little fighters were ready for their big modeling debut. They were absolute angels and really made this newborn session so easy especially for twins! (With the help of their awesome parents who assisted me when I was in need of more hands of course!) These four make up such a beautiful family and I am thrilled to have been able to document this special journey for them.

And my favorite from the session that you will find having in my studio very soon..

Lacey | Birth

It is always an honor to be welcomed into a birth space. I do not take that invitation lightly. And to be asked back in again, it honestly brings on all the feels. I photographed the birth of Taylor and Casie’s first daughter almost 2 years ago. I posted a birth calendar update and not long after i received a panicked text from Casie saying she was almost in tears. My response “Tell me you’re pregnant?! :)” She then proceeded to tell me that she saw I was booked for the month of her due date. Turns out, she was due THE DAY before my sister’s wedding (which I was MOH for) We made a deal that she wouldn't have her baby that day and thank goodness baby girl listened!

The next morning, October 12th, we kept chatting back and fourth. Things weren’t progressing as quickly as she was hoping so she said to hold off on heading to the hospital. 4 mins after that text, “Definitely come! 7 cm 100% effaced” Precisely 1 min after that i was in my car and “On my way!” I’ve reached the half way point of my drive and ding oh who am I kidding.. my birth client’s text tone is more like EHH! EHH! EHH!!

“Speed!!!!!”

Yup. Five exclamation marks.

I remained calm and continued to drive the speed limit.. * wink wink * I call Crouse and explain the situation, asking to use their valet parking. To which they graciously obliged. At the stop light I whip out my camera and put on my lense. Once I got there they even had an elevator held for me. I race up to the 7th floor and am honestly just hoping I don’t hear a baby crying once I get to her room. I walk in and thankfully, Casie is still pregnant!

About a half hour later, “It’s a girl!” Lacey Kate<3

I am so thankful that I was able to be there for this birth. And while Taylor says 2 is the magic number, I’ll be over here hopping for a Hilsinger baby #3. ;)

Carmen | Birth

I had 3 births in a matter of 5 days. I was pretty sure the hospital had become my new home. And, I wasn’t upset about that. Minus the mediocre food and lack of sleep. ;) These births were all perfectly spaced throughout the month of June. But what can you do? Babies are on their own schedule! :)

Jenna started having contractions the day before. And since she was about 2 weeks early I was thinking it could possibly be braxton hicks and that she might end up being sent home. Nope! Carmen was ready to meet her mama and daddy! Jenna labored like and absolutely champ and pushed for maybe 10 mins before miss Carmen made her debut. Carmen is perfect. And she is SO lucky to have the awesome family she was welcomed in to.

Here are a few of my favorite images.

And Carmen’s birth video.<3

Bethany | Maternity

Bethany is one of the sweetest people I have ever met and photographing her and her bump was an absolute joy. I will be photographing her welcoming her baby boy into the world any day now! Since I’m sure I will be sharing more in that post, I will keep this one short and sweet. These images were taken at North Street Nursery in Pulaski, NY. How beautiful is this location and mama to be?!
