Here are some of the details I took of Gabe.  Last I heard he was doing very well.  He’s on oxygen because the doctor was concerned about his breathing, but hopefully he will be off of that by tomorrow.

This past Monday I had the wonderful privilege of meeting sweet little Gabe and his mommy and daddy.  I know I don’t usually post the baby’s name, but this one needs special prayers.  Here is his website: Gabe.  He is having surgery tomorrow so please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.  Lisa and Chuck live in the Cleveland area, but opted to have Gabe down in Columbus where they can perform this special surgery on his heart.  I drove down on Monday to capture the love his parents have for him…it was so apparent the minute I walked in his room.  I was so honored Lisa asked me to do this…AND I got to hold him!!

Here are some images to start, but I’m going to add more this week.

The reason isn’t clear yet, but Gabe is here to teach us all something…something big.

adding some more now…

Gabe and his famous bubbles!

So perfect!

Ohh, Baby L was just so tiny, sweet and beautiful! She was very sleepy at first, but then she wanted to stay awake and see what we were all up to!  L wasn’t quite 5 lbs. and probably one of the tiniest I have worked with so far.

Mom and dad were so obviously incredibly in love with their new baby and I was thrilled to create so many images of them with baby L.

Michael and Melissa are such an amazing couple and their session was awesome!  I’m not quite finished, but wanted to show them a couple of images.  I’ll post more later!

This little sweetie is just so adorable and fun to photograph.  The first image makes my heart melt.  She is so perfect and sweet sitting there!

Meet sweet baby S.  Her sweet baby face just melts me!  Dad was so loving and patient with his new baby girl and his beautiful wife.  I so love watching new parents interact with each other and their baby.  I know it can be a stressful and tiring time so I make sure the atmosphere is relaxing and the session is not rushed.

Baby feet just give me butterflies!

Here are some images from the fundraiser!  We had so much fun meeting all of your pets.  Thank you to my helpers too - my sister, cousin and my girls.  I couldn’t have done it all alone.

Send me a message if you’d like to adopt a kitten!

Shelby was such a big help!  I love how Roxy is looking at the stuffed animals as if she were saying “You’ve got to be kidding me!”

This little pup was just a few months old and just so sweet.

Goldens are one of my favorite dog breeds!
