When a local client, Kim reached to our company last year to schedule a maternity and newborn session for her first daughter, I was thrilled. As we approached the date of the shoot, though, the shoot was off. We received terrible news that she had to deliver stillborn. She had lost her first baby, Emerie. She told me that one day she hoped to write back to schedule another shoot, and more than anything I hoped the same. Sure enough, about 6 months later Kim had fantastic news - they were expecting again, this time a boy.
We had such a wonderful time at their maternity session in November, celebrating their pregnancy as well as honoring Emerie. Very understandably, they were hesitant to schedule their newborn session until their baby boy was delivered safely.
I'm happy to say that last week I had the pleasure of photographing baby Linden for them, who is healthy as can be.
