Where do I start?… How can we ever repay military families for what they do?  Their sacrifice goes beyond anything that could ever be paid monetarily.  What they do for our country is amazing.  We have the opportunity to photograph many military families that are on the cusp of deployment that includes a family separation.  These days families are separated for 8+ months and longer.  Generally we photograph these families 1 month prior to their deployment.  While photographing these families, my mind is always reeling about the family that will be left behind.  Meet the O’Connor family.  Amazing people, amazing family, amazing sacrifice.

So you’re 2 years old and it’s your birthday, so what do you do…you schedule your 2 year old portrait session of course!  We have been blessed to document little Kaiya since she was just conceived.  Following her mommy and daddy since they were 2 months pregnant, through their pregnancy, then the birth, 1st birthday and now the 2nd birthday of their precious gift.  We got to spend a beautiful morning at the beautiful location of the Hermitage Museum.  Documenting lives is what we do.  What a great job we have!

Newborn photography is always an amazing time in a family’s life to capture there precious new little package.  We love the opportunity to capture the memories that last a lifetime.  Little Chloe weighed in at a whopping 4 lb 2 ounces.  She wasn’t a preemie, just the weight of one.  Check out this precious newborn that has completed this family’s life.
