In Kristens’ maternity portrait session, if you’re like me, you looked at her perfect little belly and wondered what the child would bring – hair? dimples? chubby? long eyelashes? I knew he would be loved beyond what words can express. On his delivery date, I kept finding myself wondering, “Is he here, yet? Are they getting a zillion texts to see if he’s here? Would another hurt?” Yes, I get a bit into knowing when the stork delivers, and I relish all the details – Mom and baby’s health, how long did it take, and all of baby’s stats.

When Cannon arrived for his newborn pictures, can I tell you that he nailed very pose like a champ? Mom and Dad were over-the-top delightful, too. They brought in some fabulous fun props – a stuffed deer, wood chips to go with the antler picture, fun Texas Tech items (Gig ‘em Aggies), and, best of all, adoring smiles with calm, loving tenderness that is so beautiful.
