When we had Ely, we put down a hefty deposit on a photographer before she was born, shortly after we had someone offer to do a lifestyle session for us free of charge.... and I ended up loving those pictures way more! Guess what... that same thing happened again with Koa, and yes, even though I think his studio photos are beautiful I love these ones so much more. Maybe it is because they were taken by a dear friend, or because they were in our home, or because we didn't feel rushed or hurried. These essentially captured memories. I know I am late in posting these, he was only 3 weeks old when these were taken and now he is almost 2 months!

One of my favorite photographs of all time.
I love this little series!
No artificial posing here, this is as real as it gets... unfortunately for Convese.
My sweet, old fellow... going on ten years. He still goes out on adventures, he just recuperates much much longer now.
Everyone was fighting for dad's attention here.
This girl just radiates joy.
So tired and so happy.
The month before I became pregnant, I dreamed of a little boy, wrapped in this green blanket, with me holding him this way.
She asks to hold him all the time. I need to be better about letting her do this.
Sean was back there the whole time, hand on baby and guitar.
My friend Anna did such a beautiful job! We are so blessed to have her in our lives!
