Amazing Grace…

day was unbelievably emotional. A dear friend and fellow photographer, Ruth, welcomed baby Grace into this world, and I was honored to be there with my camera in hand.

This sweet baby girl is such a special little life, and there were so many fellow photographers and friends across the country holding their breath and sending up prayers for her safe arrival today.


Welcome to the world baby Grace.

We have been waiting for you.

    WOW! what a strong family and what a beautiful gift. I SO love checking your website. you inspired me to share my craft with my friends and family through blogging. there is just something so complete about the way you photograph and share, and become a PART of the families you work with. there is always that little something extra. funny anecdotes, moving stories.
    how wonderful to be able to provide your gift for the arrival of a friend’s new gift. i wish them well and peace with this new beginging.

    Oh yeah, Jen these images are amazing girl, I’m still so upset the idiots at my hospital wouldn’t let you photograph Sian’s birth! At least Ruth will have these incredible moments captured forever for her sweet family. Great job as always!
