You always hear the inspirational sayings, “good things come to those who wait”, “dreams do come true”, and that “miracles can happen” during a time when a loved one is trying to comfort you.   Whenever I heard those sayings, deep down I wanted to believe them, but a small part of me doubted; especially when it came to starting a family.  Things were not going according to plan and after years of trying to have a baby,  I was still not pregnant.  We struggled for 5 years with  infertility, and let me tell you, those were the longest 5 years of my life.  Even now when I look back, I really don’t know how I kept it together!  God, my family, friends and photography were the bright spots that kept me focused and positive, as well as, the little voice deep down urging me to believe,  “good things come to those who wait”, “dreams do come true”, and that “miracles can happen”.

Well, our dream finally has come true, and I am so happy to announce that we are going to have a baby!   So, that little voice that kept whispering to my heart, telling me to not give up hope and to believe, was right!  Stef and I feel extremely blessed and are so joyful about welcoming this long awaited miracle into our lives soon!  We are documenting every part of this pregnancy and cherishing every kick, every ultrasound, and every sleepless night, because it truly is a miracle that we thought we would never get to experience!  Here are a few of our favorite images so far.  I will share more as we take them!

We are also very excited to have so many wonderful weddings booked this fall, and will be very ready to get back to photography once I return from maternity leave in July!
