Deano is the son of one of my favorite wedding couples, Demetria and Larry. Click here to see the blog about their wedding photos! He was an amazing baby and looked so cute in his little handmade knit hat. Deano is a big Phillies fan so it’s rather unfortunate that he was born a little too late to see us win the Championship. Deano is adorable and has two very fun and cool parents. On a side note Deano peed on his mommy’s shirt and pooed in his daddy’s hands during this shoot. Ahh the joys of photographing newborns.
I have a handful of clients that stand out from the rest and Jayne is at the top. She found me on theknot.com and gave me a call. Jayne, Tim and Aunt El met me at my home in Hatfield. I didn’t have a studio yet. The room was filled with newborn baby stuff, Michelle was breast feeding in the other room and I was showing off albums that I would probably be embarrassed of now. It makes me smile because that meeting will stand out to me as one of the most important that I’ve ever had. I photographed their wedding, Aunt El’s mother’s birthday bash, Jayne’s sisters wedding in Italy, their friend Tina’s wedding, Sofia twice now, Alix and Jason’s little baby Jed, and weddings that will be coming in the future. The family is amazing. They treat me as family and I feel so happy to be around them. Italy was one of the greatest trips I’ve ever taken and I’ll never forget it. I was more than the photographer, I was another one of their family for a week and I was proud to be a part of it.
I can’t say thank you to Jayne’s family enough. I think I owe them something for all they have given me. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I will be in touch with the gift I have in mind.
For now, here are some photos of Jayne and TIm’s baby Sofia. What a cutie pie!
Well, I have reached that point in my career as a photographer where I am photographing baby photos of past wedding couples. It’s a great feeling and I am thnkful to have clients who keep coming back for more! Lillian and John were married back in 06 (I think…now I can’t remember). She asked me to drive out to Lancaster to photograph her newest baby, Nicholas who was pretty happy when he was sleeping and not so happy otherwise. But then again, he was in a china cupboard, naked on the hardwood floor, in the prickly grass, and stuffed in a wicker basket. I guess he has a right to be a little peeved. Amelia, loves her brother but tried hard to keep everything very serious and business like while I was there. Fortunately, I was able to get a couple of shots with the two of them together. When a toddler decides that she isn’t going to hug her brother, you’re not going to make her do it. We had a great time and I’m proud of the photos that I got. If you know anyone who wants photos like these please urge them to call me. I love babies and kids!
This is a long story about a miracle named Isaiah. Since I will never be able to do the story justice I will give you the cliff notes version. Isaiah was given very little chance to survive. There was little hope that he would live past a few weeks or months and only a little more hope to make it through childbirth. Many people were praying for a miracle but sadly the doctors did not expect much. Isaiah was believed to have a rare genetic disease that caused deformities inside and outside of the body. The genetic condition takes the lives of those who have it quickly. Well, the day of the brith came and there was some deformities but Isaiah did not have the genetic condition the doctors thought. After a few major surgeries, baby Isaiah and his family spent a while in the Ronald McDonald house and soon came home. Isaiah has a few more hurdles to overcome but he is a survivor. He is a handsome guy and I was happy to donate some time to photographing him, his brother Josiah and his parents Joy and Chris who are friends of our family. Welcome home Isaiah.
I’m sure many of you are aware that my wife and I just had another baby. Kinsey was born on October 21st and Michelle and I are just so excited that Reegan has a playmate in the making. We are all so happy that she is happy and healthy. Here are a few quick shots that I took last night.
This is a doll stroller. Kinsey didn’t quite fit but it cracks me up everytime I see it. She wasn’t so happy about this shot. The photo on the right is what she looks like after a good feeding. Oh Yeah! That hits the spot.
Thinking deep thoughts.
What the heck is on my head?
Reegan knows how to sit in front of the camera. I asked her to sit in front of me so I could test the flash. Even though it’s just a test shot I love it.
Halloween!
She loved the wings.
This is her smiling for the camera.
