Sophie is one year old!

Hard to believe it's been a year since I photographed my first birth, but here we are. I have documented/photographed everything Sophia since before she was born. Gender reveal party, baby shower, birth, newborn photos, six months,and Christmas. This time we did some one year old pictures. I also took photos at her amazing party!  We had our session in one of my favorite locations, my sisters back yard. Her house is surrounded by woods, Its so pretty there, no matter the season. 

  Her mama had some of the cutest outfits all ready for our shoot. Oh my gosh those mermaid pants! LOVE!Sophie is always ready for the camera and that day was no different. Well a little different, she moves now! It was a little difficult keeping her still! She was all smiles though! 

Sophie's party was mermaid themed and oh so cute. The decorations were made by Jaci (Sophie's mom) and my sister, They fit the theme perfectly. You can definitely tell by the amount of people there what a special little girl she is, and so so loved!!

Here are some photos from her photo session and her party!

The arrival of Sophia Rae

I've written several blogs about Miss Sophia, the first was when we found out she was gonna be a girl. The next was for her big beautiful baby shower. Well now she is here! Item number 2 on my photography bucket list was to photograph the birth of a baby. The last time I had the chance I didn't make it to the end cause my husband was injured. When my cousin Jaci asked me to be there to photograph Sophia's birth I jumped at this second chance!

It all started Tuesday night, Jaci was to be induced starting at 7 pm. I got to the hospital around 8. Well it just wasn't happening that night, cause 10 other babies were born! So Jaci's induction didn't get started til about 6 am. At that point I had been awake since 7 am Tuesday morning. But I didn't wanna sleep, I couldn't miss anything! Jaci did such a great job laboring all day, things just weren't happening the way the doctor wanted it to, so we did have a moment when they thought they were gonna have to do a c-section. But right as they were about to take her back for that, everything was OK again, and Sophia was ready to come out!

I was one of the three people Jaci wanted in the room for the birth, so I found a corner and stayed put until Sophie was here and I could start taking pictures! The moment that Jaci gave her final push and then saw Sophia, was the most beautiful moment I have ever witnessed in my whole life. I actually have a video of that moment I took for Jaci. I've watched it 5 times already and cry every time. 

We then went out to the waiting room for a little while so Jaci and Caleb could have some family time. I got to wait with 7 very anxious grandparents! About an hour later Jaci and Caleb were ready for visitors. When I walked back in that room you could already see that mom glow on Jaci's face. I continued to take photos while everyone had their turn at meeting and holding Sophie. 

I am so happy Jaci and Caleb allowed me to be there for every moment. I wouldn't trade that for anything in the world, and I'd do it all over again, even with the 40+ hours straight of no sleep!

Here she is, Miss Sophia Rae, born April 8th, at 5:07 pm, 6lbs 11oz. and 20 inches long. As beautiful as her mama! 

I felt like a little photo slideshow would be the best way to tell this story and show off the photos. So here you go, I hope you enjoy!

Now I can officially check this one off my bucket list!

Sophie Rae's Baby Shower!

Several months ago I started this blog, and the very first post was about the gender reveal party my cousin Jaci had. You can read that blog HERE. Well, this past weekend was little miss Sophie's baby shower. She's due to arrive in about a month! I can't wait to meet her! The shower was put together by several of Caleb's family members, and it was so beautiful. There was great food, beautiful decorations, and the super cute nail buffers and nail polish party favors. I have never seen a shower like it. 

And the gifts! That Sophia is one LOVED little baby already! Here are the photos of the wonderful celebration!
