Ive been giddy about this photo shoot since the moment we agreed on a date.

I couldn't have asked for a more cute and relaxed couple,or a prettier location. 

 Alyssa and Kerry made everything about this session perfect.

 I asked Alyssa if she would be up for taking a few pictures in the water at the end of our shoot, and before she could respond, Kerry quickly said, "Absolutely she would!"

Alyssa followed that with an "I'm up for anything!"

 I knew from that moment on, this was going to be a fun evening. 

My first interaction with Alyssa and Kerry (as a couple)  had been in a wedding that I photographed a few years ago, they were engaged at the time and such a fun couple to have in a wedding party.   After the wedding, I received a message from Alyssa telling me how much fun she and Kerry had during the pictures, and hoped that we could do a session someday.  

That note made my day. 

  When baby Prather was announced, I was excited to receive a  second message asking if I could be a part of this chapter of their lives in this way.  

 I am thrilled for the two of you.  You are going to make such a great parenting team.  

This baby is entering a home where love and joy are quickly found.

 I can't think of a better gift to be given. 

Life changing.  

Sometimes a difficult change, but worth every single struggle, tear and sleepless night.  

Because it's a change for the better.  

You are bringing life into this world. And the world will be better for it.
