Anyone who knows me, knows my struggle – I have constant baby fever. I am not bothered by the night time feeds, the constant holding, by the dirty diapers or the extra laundry- it’s all so worth it to hold those sweet babies in my arms. If it weren’t for the fact that I also have to find the time to raise my older children, I would just keep praying for as many babies as God would give me! I love their smell and I adore the way they nuzzle up against your cheek when they’re hungry. So, so good. But- if I can’t have them all, at least I can snuggle them during their time with me in my studio!
I’m constantly amazed at how each baby is created completely unique, unlike any other one in the world. It makes photographing them new each time- finding their special details, photographing their sweet little profiles. And I love seeing how the parents interact with their baby- some are nervous and unsure, some full of confidence, some are very relaxed and laid back. And every one of them is head over heels in love. That’s just what babies do to you. They make you fall in love. And I get to photograph that love. What a wonderful thing that is.
