Last summer I had a miscarriage...and the same day that my friend told me she was pregnant was the day I told her I no longer was. This sweet baby boy of hers was due one day after my little one would have been. He came a week early and caused his mama a little stress before he was born but he was born healthy and adorable and blessed to be in the family he is in. Meet Tucker. Sweet little brother to three adoring siblings. He is such a good baby and his mama is kind enough to let me hold him a lot. I was fortunate enough to be able to take some photographs of him (even though it had been over six months since I picked up my big camera) so his mama could remember how tiny and perfect he was...he's already getting bigger! You see, babies don't keep. They change and grow so quickly. Which is a good thing. But it's also a good thing to have precious photographs to remember those newborn and tiny features. Here is a big sneak peek for you friend. Thanks for letting me come over and photograph this sweet little bundle!!

I am so out of practice when it comes to newborn photography. In fact I think the last newborn I photographed was my little man who is about to turn 2...but I could be wrong...I just know it's been a long while. So, while out of practice, I still know a few things and was able to get some cute shots of this adorable little brother for some  new friends at our church. I have a pretty good track record of newborns NOT sleeping through their sessions. I tend to keep them on high alert and so getting the super squishy, flexible, sleeping photos are tough. This little man was the same...but we managed to get a few cute shots. I really hope you like them Joanna and Caleb. Thank you so much for letting me snuggle your little man for a bit and for trusting me with these precious memories!! Here are a few of my favorite shots!!
