These two are the sweetest. I knew we would get along because the first time we met we talked in depth about food - more specifically our mutual love for making and eating ice cream! We had so much fun at their maternity session at the Peninsula Park Rose Garden & Hoyt Arboretum. To beat the 100-degree heat, we did a late evening photoshoot. The light was perfect and so were Ted and Nicole. I can't wait until August when I get to meet their sweet little baby!

Meet Lola - born exactly on her due date and tiny as can be! I loved hanging out with her family and photographing this moment in their lives. As I mentioned before, the way Cecily and Drew look at their new daughter reminds me why I take pictures. (And why I have "parent fever" now too.) Being there, in the intimate corners of someones home, capturing real life - it makes my heart feel full.
Happy Birthday Lola! Welcome to life in Portland with a couple of rad parents! (and grandparents too!)
Is there such a thing as "parent fever"? If there isn't than I just invented it while editing the portraits I took of Cecily and Drew with their brand new baby, Lola. Don't get me wrong, Lola is ADORABLE, but I found myself entranced by her mom and dad. Image after image they are looking at her with glazed eyes full of amazement and so much joy they could burst. I've never seen two people more in love. Ladies and gentleman, this is why I photograph.
