Brand New | Jacob

I’m happy to announce the newest member of my family: Jacob! My little boy arrived at the end of January (two weeks early) and has been an immense blessing since. Having two little boys in the house has kept my wife and I VERY busy, and Noah loves being a big brother. We’re getting used to sleepless nights again, but it won’t be long before things even out. Seems like the first few months slip by in a blink of an eye anyway. Maybe all the interrupted sleep helps us forget how tired we really are 🙂

Jacob was delivered by C-section, and I was able to make some amazing photos in the operating room. Just seeing these birth photos, I am in awe once again of God’s incredible plan for life and reproduction. Even though you know there’s a baby in mama’s belly as she grows, it’s still amazing to see that miracle of birth take place and witness an actual child being born.

Without further ado, here’s my brand new baby boy:

At only a week old, Jacob is working on his kung-fu. You don’t wanna mess with this kid 🙂

Brand New | Alice

Meet Alice. She’s one of my giveaway newborn sessions from back in September. This little bean was just two weeks old for her session and slept like a baby—restless and sporadic! But once she was down, she went down hard and we were able to easily pose her. I had a lot of fun at this session and it was the first time I got to use my new giraffe hat. I think she wears it well, even if it’s a little big 🙂

Congrats to Mike and Erin on your beautiful little girl—what a blessing she is!

I’m Giving Away a Brand New Session!

Want to do something nice for someone else? Of course, we all do, so here’s your opportunity! I’m giving away a Brand New session (newborn portrait session, $150 value) to a family with a new addition on the way. But I’m going to let you tell me who should get it.

Nominate someone you think should receive this complimentary session by leaving a comment* on this blog post. Tell me who they are, where they live and why you think they should receive it (you don’t have to use last names if you don’t want). I’m looking for a family who is having their baby in the next 3 months (at least before Christmas). Preferably, nominations should be within 20-25 miles of Woodstock.

Don’t wait too long to nominate, the deadline for this giveaway is Sept. 25, 2010. The session is free, prints remain regular price.
