The other day I was able to capture some sweet pictures of my wife and daughter for a mini maternity session. My daughter Ella is so excited to be a big sister. She loves the idea that she can take care of something and “be responsible”. We are days from baby number #2 being here and I can’t wait to meet her and love her like only a daddy can do. Thank you Lord for a beautiful family!

The Barnard family is going to be three! Jim and Alisha are long time friends of mine. A neat fact about our relationship is they are the first couple I ever photographed. Four years ago they asked me to do their engagement photos and that shoot was the birth of the studio. So this shoot was extra special for me. Since the Barnards live in the city we used a lot of city locations – Lafayette Square and the City Park in downtown St. Louis. Mommy and Baby have faced some tough odds, but God obviously wanted the Barnards to have this particular baby boy! He truly is a miracle! He will be in their arms in just a couple of weeks and you will be able to see more photos of him as he grows. Thanks Jim and Alisha for allowing the opportunity to capture photos of your family as it grows!

Monday was an incredible day for me. I was hired to photograph the birth of Josh and Chrissy’s son. This day was so special to be apart of and to witness a miracle happen. Little Ethan enter the world weighing 7lbs and 1oz and measuring 19 inches long. As I watched Josh and Chrissy experience every moment of the day I to was flooded with emotion from my own daughters birth, two years ago. My goal for the day was not to just give the Dutton family great images but to capture the day so they can live all the emotions and memories of the day over and over again. The images below tell the story of the day and there are so many other great images that will be precious images in the years to come. Josh and Chrissy thank for letting me be apart of you family and help you capture one of life’s special moments! Enjoy the sneak peak and congratulations!

On Labor Day I got a chance to meet up with the Dutton family to do a combination session of maternity and family portraits. It was so neat to capture this moment in the life of the family. For the past three years it has been just the three of them and the beginning of next month baby Ethan will here and then there will be four Duttons. This session has been so hard to edit and choose which pictures to post because this family is incredibly photogenic. So I have narrowed it down to my favorite 9 photos. Here’s the sneak peak!
Josh and Chrissy thank you so much for letting me capture this chapter of your life. I look forward to documenting the beginning of the your next chapter… baby Ethan!
