Studio Newborn

Jeremiah | Studio Newborn | Denham Springs, LA

June 4, 2020

I am in awe over how cute this baby is. He has hair just like his sister when she was born. To say that I am jealous would be an understatement! I loved getting to see him in my studio for his very first portrait session, and I can’t wait to see how much grows at each milestone.

I look forward to watching his little personality develop and see how he interacts with his sister over the next year.

Front Porch Sessions | Coronavirus | Denham Springs, LA

May 1, 2020

For the last 6 weeks or so, most families have been confined to their homes, only leaving for necessities like groceries and prescriptions, due to the pandemic of COVID-19 or Coronavirus. Each home looks a little different, though.

Some people are considered “essential,” and must continue to go to their jobs at places like the plants, power companies, grocery stores, and banks.

Some people continue to punch the clock, but do so from their new kitchen or patio office.

And some people selflessly dress in their scrubs and armor themselves with head to toe PPE, and provide loving care to some really, really sick patients.

The last six weeks looks a little different for all of us, but one thing is the same. We are slowing down. We are spending more time with our loved ones. We are taking a break from our busy schedules, and we are actually getting a chance to soak it in.

You know how you have a baby and wake up one day and three years seems to have flown by? And the next thing you know, that baby is five years old and too smart for her own good? This is our chance to see each other. See your kids. See your spouse. See your pet, your neighbor.

There is a common phrase that says “The days are long, but the years are short.” Use these last two weeks to really fill those long days with something meaningful. What’s important to you?

While this Coronavirus has been a burden for a lot people in some way or another, the time we are encouraged to have at home is a blessing. Make the most of it.

During this time, I was able to meet several families and take their pictures Front Porch style. These are some of my favorites:

June | Maternity Session | Baton Rouge, LA

April 30, 2020

I first met June when she and her husband asked me to do a Fresh 48 Session two years ago when their daughter, Jasmine, was born. I’ve seen them every three months since then, documenting all of Jasmine’s milestones. I was beyond excited for them when she shared that they were expecting another sweet baby! It’s a BOY this time. His name is Jeremiah, and I can’t wait to meet him! This Coronavirus is kinda cramping my style, though, so I need that to go ahead and go away so I can get my hands on that baby ASAP!

Looking absolutely gorgeous in blue, June rocked this maternity session! These are just a handful of my favorites. I had SO many! These were taken at the Capitol Park Museum and across the street in the beautiful garden at the State Capitol in Baton Rouge.
