I mentioned when I posted their little preview on Facebook that I was hesitant to actually even share a certain image. Why? Because that kind of thing just doesn’t happen. It doesn’t. It’s like the Holy Grail of the newborn photography world. And I don’t want everyone to think that I’m magical or something and I can make that happen. I try. Believe me, I try. But this was just pure love and adoration.

Lucky, lucky girl.
