Twins...double the love {Palm Bay Newborn Photographer}

When Lisa contacted me and told me she was due with twins I was so excited. While it seems twins are more popular these days then years before, I have only photographed one other set of twins. My sister has twin boys and I photograph them all the time but never did their newborn photos. In fact they are 8years old now and when they were born I didn't even hold them. I was scared of babies. Now look at me. I want all the babies! LOL Funny how life changes you.

So the most exciting part of the whole thing is that she and her husband waited until they were born to know the gender. How awesome is that. I am a control freak and needs to know kind of person, so I don't think I could have waited it out. But I think it is awesome when others can do this. I mean when I was born my parents had to wait, it has only been more recent that you can determine the sex and now see them in live 3D/4D settings.

I was so excited when she texted me after they arrived to tell me they were girls!!! Boys are great and I love my boy, but having two girls to photograph at once was like overdrive. All the cute stuff you can do with girls. I immediately reached out to other photographers for some cute matching stuff. Kelly Bouchard with The little moments photography let me use her adorable bonnets. I had a few other coordinating goodies and then found some from some prop vendors. I also received assistance from Kelly Pino Photography the day of the session. I never do newborns without a second hand. They require all of the attention and I want mom and dad to get a breather.

The girls did great and were a dream to work with. They really did rock their session. Their big sister was also amazing to work with. Loved her big girl smile. This is one blessed family and I am so glad they were able to complete it with Bianca and Cecilia.

Meet Sweet Layla....a Rainbow of Hope {brevard county newborn photographer}

So a few months ago I had the pleasure of capturing Nikki's pregnancy for her maternity session. You may recall it was the Rainbow session that was featured on Parents.com?!?! Well their sweet little rainbow of hope, has made her way Earth side and she is perfect in every. single. way!

Jeff and Nikki endured so much to conceive their baby and just when they thought the fight was over, they would face one more big battle...the delivery. Nikki's first born, Greyson was breech so they did a C-section. So when she was pregnant with Layla, her and her doctor discussed doing a VBAC (vaginal birth after c-section). The doctor was confident that this was a great option for them. Layla was in perfect position and the doctor performed many VBACS without any issues.

The day came for Layla to come. Things started off ok, but soon the pain intensified but the progress did not. They monitored Nikki very close to ensure everything was ok with her and the baby. After hour of laboring and no progress to deliver, the doctor decided the best thing would be to deliver her via C-Section. After all they wanted what was best for baby and mommy.

The doctor delivered the baby and she was taken for measurements, check up etc. Meanwhile Nikki was being taken care of by the doctor. And fortunately she was in great care. There is a less than 1% chance that when you deliver a child via VBAC (or an attempt) that the uterus can rupture due to the previous incision. Nikki was that 1%! Fortunately for her and Layla, the doctor handled the situation with ease and other than the extreme pain Nikki felt during labor, they were not made aware of the situation until after Layla was safely delivered and Nikki was taken care of. Her doctor not only delivered her sweet baby, but saved their lives.

Layla couldn't be more perfect and Nikki is doing great since the delivery. So happy this story has such a beautiful ending.

Beach maternity Session {Brevard County Maternity Photographer}

I love maternity sessions. I think when a woman is carrying a child she radiates with so much beauty and I love being able to capture that beauty for moms. Many times during pregnancy you deal with sickness, pains, and tiredness; but you also have a glow about you. Your body is creating a life inside that will enter into the world. It really is amazing what we are capable of.

Amanda is expecting a sweet little girl in a few weeks and we wanted to highlight her pregnancy. It was such a windy day on the beach but we captured some amazing photos. The rocks, the waves and the sun were the perfect backdrop to showcase her beauty.

These images not only show her pregnancy but it's almost as though you can feel her connect with that child inside already. I cannot wait to see the bond they will have once the little one makes her way earth side. <3

If you are expecting and have considered having your pregnancy documented, please chat with me. The best time for maternity images is 30-35 weeks. This is a safe time to do them and you don't feel completely miserable yet. Your belly usually is nice and round too. This is a moment you can never get back, so take the time to document it. Wear one of my fancy gowns and feel beautiful with the life you are growing inside you.
