Joshua Stephen | 11.6.2012

Last month, I had the awesome opportunity to do my first maternity photo shoot with Heather and Chris Coy.  You can see the images from that blog post here.  The great thing about maternity sessions is that shortly afterwards, new life is welcomed into the world, and sometimes I have the joy of taking pictures of the baby.  That was the case with Joshua Stephen, who was only 12 days old when we took these pictures.  What an adorable little guy!  Chris and Heather both have plenty of aspirations for their son – one of the most notable is Chris’ desire for another baseball player in the family tree.  Heather was happy getting him dressed up in a tie – have to prepare him for the corporate world in case the baseball thing doesn’t work out, right? We enjoyed every moment of both photo sessions with the Coys and can’t wait to get to know Joshua as he grows up!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Coys | Maternity

My wife and I had the privilege to spend time with the Coys this weekend and take some pictures of the THREE of them.  Heather is due in about 5 weeks!  We’re so excited for them and can’t wait to meet the little one – they won’t find out if it’s a boy or a girl until birth.  Chris and Heather’s love for each other and for the baby is very evident, and we know they will be great parents.  Thanks to Heather’s parents for letting us use their beautiful home for this photo shoot – our first maternity session!  Hopefully the baby likes burnt orange (Hook ‘Em)!

Emerson Leigh | 8.16.2012

Our good friends Trent and Amanda asked if we would be willing to do a newborn photography shoot for their beautiful daughter Emerson. We happily obliged – not only is it a joy to take pictures of wonderful, new life, Katie and I really enjoy spending time with the Thompsons and their older daugher, Kinley.  Also, I was really eager to try out my new lens.  It was my first time working with an infant, so I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect.  But Amanda was super helpful – she even sent me some picture ideas beforehand and links to a few other blogs with beneficial pointers for baby photography).  It took Emerson a little while to calm down, but once she fell back to sleep, the shoot was a breeze.  Emerson is 16 days old today – we hope you enjoy her photos.  Click on any of them to enlarge and feel free to leave comments!
