I had the blessing of taking some pictures of Joanne and Shane’s beautiful gift from God, Chloe. Joanne and I have worked together over many years and her friendship has been such a source of joy to me. I have always admired her strength and faith in God. When I first got engaged, she was so helpful with the wedding planning process. When I first found out we were pregnant, she was so helpful with answering my questions and listening to my worries. I am so lucky to call her friend.

Here are some photos from our baby session with their beautiful baby girl, Chloe.

Joanne’s sister also recently had a baby and we got to get some cute photos with Baby Bella.

Joanne and Shane, thank you for having me! I can’t wait for our baby girls to play together!

I am such a sucker for baby blues. Or baby browns. Or just babies in general. I don’t what it is about the eyes of children, but they just make my heart melt. Adam and I had such a great time with Rachel and her beautiful baby boys, Grant and Colten, at Balboa Park. It was such a blessing to be able to share in and capture some of the abundant love that just pours out of Rachel’s heart for her babies.

One of my fave shots from the day.

And one with Grandma Nancy!

Rachel, thank you for sharing your boys with us for an afternoon of fun!

I knew it would be dangerous going into this shoot. Not because I’m afraid of babies, but more so because I’d be afraid of wanting to have my own baby after getting to see Charlie. I was right. Should have known, my intuition is hardly ever wrong. While editing the photos, I couldn’t help but gush.. constantly over just how cute Charlie is. This is not good for Adam and I.

Charleigh and I work together and it has been such a blessing to be her friend. I can’t believe that it’s almost been two years since Adam and I were celebrating at their wedding. Every time I’d see her at work while she was pregnant, I couldn’t help but just smile because I was so happy for her, but also a bit envious of her beautiful pregnant glow. Being able to get a sneak peek of her new family with baby Charlie was such a blessing to me because I got to witness firsthand the joy that is just overflowing from the Sights household. I am so incredibly happy for Char and Brandon and their beautiful baby boy.

Who could say no to that face?

Can you just feel my heart melting? *sigh*

All of these animals were hand painted by Char and Brandon. It’s absolutely amazing. Wow.

Thank you Char and Brandon for sharing Charlie with me for a little bit! He is so precious!

I couldn’t help post at least one of the photos of precious Charlie from yesterday’s baby portrait session before editing my other projects. Doesn’t this just ooze happiness?! *smile*

More to come!
