This family is so special to me because the gorgeous mom here is my oldest daughter's godmother! We met when we were pregnant for the first time ever, we were working across the hall from each other in a corporate building. Marzena was 6 months ahead of me in her pregnancy and we became the greatest friends. And a few years later we had our second littles. I was so excited to do this updated session for them!
OH I just cannot tell you how I live for moments like these.
As a documentary photographer, I see most of my documentation through during women's labors and births of their babies.
So when a family contacts me because they want a documentary session inside their home, my heart just skips a beat. And then it flutters. And then it glows.
This is where my whole heart and passion pours into my work.
I hope you enjoy this session as much as I did :)
What a special treasure to document this family's first professional photos (and first family shoot) ever.
I love Delray Beach.
It is quiet. It is filled with golden, toasty sunlight.
I love that the sun was gloriously setting as we arrived at the beach.
There's something special about our south Florida beaches. You can go every night, but the sand, water, clouds and light never look quite the same.
These parents love for their little girl shines brighter than anything.
My mama client called me first thing Monday morning that her labor was pretty intense and her waves were close... I was on my way within minutes and arrived just to capture the most beautiful, inspiring, serene precipitous labor and dad catching his daughter in their home. Their wonderful midwife Gelena Hinkley arrived just as I did and everything fell into perfect place as their goddess mama welcomed the beautiful pattern of transition following welcoming her baby girl onto her bosom. Below are some of my most favorite images from their birth. I hope you enjoy them and find inspiration and empowerment in them, as much as I did!
remember my birth client who had her third baby in the car outside of Boca Raton Regional Hospital in April?
here she is with her baby girl, almost 4 months post partum, in all their beauty...
I photographed this just before the sun disappeared over the horizon.
Last week, I visited a dear friend at Boca Raton Regional Hospital.
I love this sweet family. They are so gentle and kind. You can feel the love and compassion and respect they have for each other even if you just spend a minute with them. They are such happy, joyful, soft-spoken souls. I am so glad that all the stars in the universe aligned and that it could be possible for me to capture these very first moments for them. It means so much to me when I see the happy smiling faces of families knowing that the moments that means so much will never be lost now. Enjoy your precious newborn baby boy my friends <3
With just a few weeks remaining for this lovely mama, I had such a great time hanging out with them at the beach.
They were so easy going and care free, it made me realize sometimes we just have to take a break from being super serious and enjoy life :)
I am so eager to get the call - middle of the night - maybeeeee during the day, that mama is in early labor. I am so excited to honor this loving family by documenting the birth story of their baby girl.
These images are some of my favorite family / maternity photos of all time.
Their happiness and energy, their love and togetherness, it is amazing to me.
I am so excited to hopefully be sharing some images of this family as a family of four in just a few short weeks!
Enjoy mamas!
My fairytale mama client <3
The D'Amore family wanted to bring their boys to meet their baby sister Daniella in the Boca Regional hospital on the same day she was born. What a joy to see their giggly faces and how their parents faces lit up watching them.
You can see photos from Daniella's birth in the car outside of Boca Regional hospital earlier that morning below:
the most joyful moments are the ones you capture when your children are having fun
let your magical family photography be all about happy moments with your children being free and joyful!
love this fun teepee and all the beautifully colorful decorations mama brought with her!
