Hadley was born to Meghan and Kyle and now they are this absolutely adorable family of three! Hadley was such an angel while I was there and even let me get some pictures of her awake. I just love her name and her nursery was precious pink and green which already seems to fit this girl perfectly. Newborns are a true miracle and I feel honored to capture that. So without further ado here is Hadley…

Beautiful, perfect, peaceful Gabriella. Those were my thoughts during my time with her. She was a princess during our photo shoot letting me play dress up with her and I am thinking I want a big girl room to match her little girl pink princess circus themed room, including a chandalier (I mean…who needs a ceiling fan!?) And it is my understanding that her Daddy helped to design the room so that was all the more impressive to me. I thank Joe and Laura for inviting me into their home to share their beautiful daughter with me for a few precious hours and now I get to share her with you…

Instant attachment. That’s how I felt when I met Kendall. I could have stayed all day and just held her. I could not be happier for Kelly and Dave and their glow and happiness was definitely contagious. I was on a natural baby high for the rest of the day and am fortunate to have recurrences every time I look at these pictures (and I get to do that a lot!) So…here…I’ll share…so you too can have that natural baby high too!

Pure joy. There is no way to describe what you are feeling when this new little life is placed into your arms. Just a few weeks prior to Harper’s arrival Andrea and Ed had their maternity session, which you can see here and here. Andrea had a feeling Harper would arrive a little early-mother’s tend to know these things. Everyone got their wish when little Harper arrived right before Thanksgiving…and with one beautiful head of dark hair! So at one week old I got to hold this amazing new life in my arms and there is nothing like it and no other feeling except pure joy. We had a great time and even got to put Harper in the special Christmas outfit Grandma sent!

As soon as I met Olivia my heart melted-I mean whose wouldn’t! This precious little girl has been in this world for only one month and is already stealing the hearts of all who come into her presence! Andy and Dena are just beginning this wonderful journey as parents and I can only share from experience that it is the most rewarding and fulfilling journey they will ever take. Grandma was visiting from Illinois-this is her first grandchild so the love and excitement in the Jalbert home was abounding and I thank them for allowing me to share in a little of that. Now meet Olivia…
