meghan & erich’s maternity session
Well, these pictures are a little late- being that their baby boy was born earlier this week (but it’s not entirely my fault- he made his arrival 3 weeks early!) I was convinced Meghan was having a girl, so of course it was a boy! Congratulations to the whole family on their new son, but I hope they enjoy these now “flashback” photos too!

the kats family
A brand new to bsquared crew who is expecting (obviously) a new baby girl very soon. Their little girl was very shy of me at first, but after discussing sparkly nails and sparkly shoes, and me having her pink unicorn named “cousin mimi” as my assistant, we were friends. Isn’t mom just glowing and gorgeous! Wishing them all the best of luck with their new addition!

catie & austin + almost christopher rowan
Their baby will be here in just a few days! So happy I got to photograph another milestone for this awesome couple. Their maternity session was on a somewhat chilly evening at the beach, but they did great (even in minimal coverage!) and we had lovely light to go with their glowing pregnancy! So check out Catie & Austin’s maternity session and stay tuned for baby pictures like really soon! Send them all your well wishes for a healthy and easy delivery.

catie & austin’s baby shower
Of course this was a beautiful shower, decorated to the 9’s, with every last thing coordinated. Not a detail was overlooked. It was all “beary” beautiful (see what I did there?). I can’t wait to meet this little boy so soon! Many showers of happiness to the whole family!

jake is born
Saturday night (actually Sunday reeeeeeeeeally early morning) I had the first of what I hope to be many birth shoots. It was an incredible experience and I am so lucky and honored that Jenn & Scott let me share this most special of days with them. I am still on a high from the shoot and watching a new life come into this world. Watching what the human body is capable of was seriously awe inspiring. Many thanks to Jenn & Scott for allowing me into their lives at a very private time, to Winthrop Hospital, Dr. Dilenna, Michelle (Jenn’s nurse), Tricia (my on call “in” just in case), Val (Jenn’s mom and other birth coach), and all of Jenn & Scott’s families who kept me awake and laughing in the waiting room during the long haul wait.
I arrived at the hospital at around 11pm, finally got into Jenn’s room at around 2:30am, and witnessed Jake Martin being born at 3:58am. He was 7 pounds, 7 ounces, 21.5″ long and miraculous!
Please watch the video to see all the pictures (ok, well not ALL the pictures but everything that was suitable to post on the internet!) of Jake’s birth. Jenn & Scott, I can’t thank you enough!! Wishing you every happiness with your new little family. And I can’t wait for the newborn shoot!!I just wanted to add that:
1. I hope you cried or at least got chills during the video. I’d love to hear what you think, please feel free to comment below.
2. That my favorite picture from the whole night was Jenn having her celebratory lollipop while texting and Dr. Dilenna stitching her up. That is SO totally her.
and 3. If there are any expectant mothers out there who are interested in a birth session, I’d looooove to do another one. I think I’m addicted!
