It is not new news that I cannot get enough of photographing newborns. :) I think I am finally at a place in my life where I am content with the 2 children I have and I am pretty sure it's safe to say our family is complete, while at the same time... not causing me to have overwhelming feelings of the finale' being scary. This IS a good thing! haha! I absolutely love the newborn stage, and children in general. However, raising a teenager sure brings out what the long term of having children brings. No bigger reality than having one in your home. I have a GREAT teenager, so don't get me wrong, but worrying about emotional well-being of my children and all of the other things being a parent entails... I am done making more!! So... my point is... shooting newborns is something I NEED to do. It's where I get my baby fix, it's where I fulfill my personal adoration, but at the same time am able to capture what families need to preserve those fleeting moments.
January brought more newborns that I expected, so I got an EXCELLENT newborn fix!
Monroe's session started out a little rough. A house full of kids under 4 (well 3 to be exact) is BUSY! However, Jessica and Joe are SO amazing to work with. Jessica is willing to let me take the time to get the shots she wanted, feed on demand, and just relax and go with the flow. In the end, we came out with some images that I am SUPER excited about!
Monroe is LOVELY with all that beautiful hair, Cora (the new big sis) is just as spunky as ever, and Harrison is the noble big brother you would expect!
Thank you Botke Family for inviting me into this special time in your lives (again). You are wonderful friends, parents and people. I look forward to watching your family grow over the coming year!
xoxo, Kari
