Meet precious, six day old, Declan! This little mister decided to stay warm and cozy long past his due date. But hearing his first cry, counting five fingers and toes, and laying eyes on his tiny body for the first time made every bit of the long wait worth meeting him! Mom and dad may not have known how instantly you gain a love so deep, so foreign and yet so full of joy. Things that once mattered, no longer do and things that were never a concern all of the sudden become your every waking thought. This is the amazing miracle of life and the privilege of welcoming a baby, your own child, into the world… and I get to help document it! It was such a pleasure to spend time with this beautiful family. Daddy is a sheriff’s deputy, so you can imagine the hero he will be in little Declan’s eyes. I just love how precious we captured it. And soon enough he will be backpacking with mom and dad (you can see he already has own gear…<giggle>!) Declan and family, Merry Christmas… and enjoy your sneak peek!!!
