Newborns

Last year, after I discovered and spread the news of my fertility challenges, wouldn't you know it, all of my friends became pregnant. In the past year I have had 15 friends (yes, 15!) tell me they are pregnant. I guess they all figured it was time to start on #2. I've watched them get morning sickness, get round and beautiful, some have gone on bedrest, others made it to the finish line with no problem. Now they are all talking about what a challenge it is with 2 and I am enjoying the freedom of one. One beautiful, healthy, fabulous 3 year old. I am so thankful for my darling Georgia. What has come out of my year of wishing I was pregnant is the birth of something a little unexpected. I LOVE photography. In fact, every free moment I have I spend it pouring over photography books, blogs, and my own efforts. I've been trying to take advantage of being around a lot of newborn babies. The photo above is of little Caelan Love. He was born two weeks ago today. I didn't come up with the idea for this pose. I've seen it on other photographer's blogs. But isn't it cute? And isn't he adorable? It is fun handling and being close to the newborns. And I cannot wait until I get to take some toddler shots. I am trying to build up a portfolio and maybe, in time, start a website.
