2014 was such a year of growth. While I’ve been in love with photography for a while (second shooting at weddings and photographing the occasional family session here & there), 2014 was the first year of intentional business: I became an LLC, launched a website & blog, invested in my equipment and education, and photographed 37 sessions! 

One practice I put in place in order to reflect on the year was to compile my FAVORITE images in one place. I wanted to remember what I’ve done and pay attention to what I need to focus on doing in the future, so I shared a series of favorites back in December (Kiddos, Engagements, and Weddings). As I was putting those together, I realized there was a specific type of image I kept coming back to. I held off on sharing those with the rest of the family images, because I knew there was something special about them, something different than the rest.

Today, I want to share my favorite moments between parents and their babies. As I looked through these photos in particular, I was overwhelmed with LOVE. No matter the age or celebration, I just kept being drawn into the love and security every single one of these images shouts. Honestly, looking at these moments makes me so incredibly excited for the day when Chris & I can experience the same! This is why we do this…why it’s worth it to invest in a photographer and make it happen. I want to be more intentional in continuing to capture these in 2015 because I love these little moments, every single one of them!


Happy Friday!!

Love love love,

Sami
