Rainbow Baby Ella ~Newborn Photography in Roseville, Ca

October 6, 2010 – 1:22 pm

I had the most wonderful opportunity to meet with a friend that I’ve only known online over the last several months. Juliet and her husband, Ben, welcomed their first child, a son named Lachlan, last April. He lived for only eight days but was shown a lifetime of love during that short time. Lachlan touched so many hearts, during his life and after, and will never be forgotten.

In the babyloss community, babies born after a loss are often referred to as “rainbow babies”. Last month, Ben and Juliet welcomed their rainbow baby, Ella, into the world. I was SO happy to be able to spend a day with them and photograph Lachlan’s little sister. And can I mention that their Australian accents were delightful!

She is such a serene mother, quietly loving and adoring her baby.

Ella’s Daddy is every bit as loving and tender with her.

She slept so good for me!

I think it’s very evident that Ella will have no shortage of love! :)

I always love creative crops but this one is just my very favorite. I love all the body language.

Ben and Juliet, thank you so much for welcoming me into your home. I’m honored to call you both friends.

Sad update, taking some time off

June 9, 2009 – 3:34 pm

Well, I thought I would be taking some time off for maternity leave starting this month but I have a very sad reason for taking time off. At 34 weeks, I lost my baby. We named him Matthew. I had wonderful midwives take lots of pictures and I took a few myself. I wasn’t sure about sharing something like this on my business blog but I’ve had to cancel some of my client sessions so some of you already know anyway.

Here’s just one of the pictures of his sweet little hand.

Littlest Heroes Project- The ‘S’ Family

May 7, 2009 – 7:11 pm

I have been meaning to post about this awesome organization that I was accepted to be a part of last year- Littlest Heroes Project. http://littlestheroesproject.org/Littlest_Heroes_Project/Home.html This organization provides photography sessions for children (and their families) that are dealing with serious illnesses.

When I arrived at their home, I was greeted with 3 bright, smiling faces. Mom was so sweet and someone that I could have sat and chatted with about all the things we found we had in common. Dad was extremely helpful and patient (not just with the girls but with me too!) despite his job as a firefighter keeping him out extremely late the previous night.

I cannot say enough about these girls! They each touched my heart and I was so impressed by the amount of love they showed each other.

Enough from me, here are a few of my favorites! Mom, there are plenty more where these came from. :)

This is Miss A, the girly girl. She loves all things pink, can you tell?

This is Miss M. Her mom told me that she loved babies but I didn’t realize until I met her that this girl REALLY loves babies! I heard her mom saying that she watches a show about babies and I assumed this was a cartoon of some sort. No, she watches real life stories of moms having new babies. I was floored. lol

Finally, this is Miss T. She is a completely adorable toddler, pictured here with her stuffed lobster. I got so many cute shots of her but I loved her thoughtfulness and the light hitting her hair just so here.

The twins. They are so completely different, I had such fun watching their different personalities come out.

These two also share a very special bond. Big sister was very watchful over her the entire day, so sweet.

May 2, 2009 – 6:18 pm

Well, it’s been quite a long time with no blogging from me! With a surprise pregnancy, move to a new home and just normal happenings, I haven’t blogged any recent sessions. This family met me at Royer Park and we had some unseasonably warm weather. Little Miss H was so adorable!

Twins in Sacramento~ Sacramento Baby Photographer

December 12, 2008 – 7:05 pm

I had the pleasure of meeting the lovely L-M family this week. These babies were SO cute and the whole family was a huge help in making this session come together. :)

The little guy was cracking me up! While his sister smiled through everything, he gave me the goofiest expressions.

And here is the little lady. Her grandmother calls her a rosebud and she definitely is!

I hope you enjoy your sneak peek and I will be in contact soon with your gallery. :)

Last one! She was quite the little diva and so much fun to work with!
