we see them, these sweet shadows, ever fleeting and always growing.

real, honest, stories of the beginning of new life.

try as we might, they will never know how much we really love them, how much they have shaped the Who of What we are. Perhaps, someday, when they have their own children, they will remember our love and know, at the core of their being, that we loved them so in such deep and indescribable ways. and that this deep, cavernous love, is only an echo of what they hold for their own children.

this is the legacy we leave:

our love,

our life's work,

our children.

If only the hours spent laboring to bring your body earth side could be the compass to your heart. That with each contraction I felt, my understanding of who you were to become would be etched on my soul. That as I pushed you out into this bright world from the grey of my womb, the map of your heart would come with you, offering a guide to navigate the terrain of your soul.

For sometimes, just sometimes, I bring myself back to the moment you were born and the weight of your body as you passed from me, and wish you had whispered your secrets so I could always follow you into the wilds of your childhood, into the somewhere, out there, out where I am not able to follow.

the wrinkles, the stretch marks, the love handles, the dust, the tears, the late nights.

all inclusive package: includes pre-session meeting with wardrobe consultation; 100 digital images with print release; heirloom book and small set of prints to treasure forever.

Photos that bring you home.

I’ve been documenting families and births since before Abe Lincoln was a baby and I have come to believe that when we embrace the messy, the day-to-day grit of living, we see how our love truly shines, even in the darkest of times.
