colorado springs birth photographer | chloe and family

Chloe arrived via c-section on the morning of July 13th.  I have wanted to photograph a birth for a long time, so I was very excited that Chloe waited until Monday morning to arrive!  (We had weddings Saturday and Sunday, so her arrival was perfect!)  I wasn’t allowed in the OR, but I was there when she was reunited with her mom for their first real meeting.   I came back again that evening to catch Brandon meeting his baby sister for the first time.  It was so adorable–Brandon is going to be a fantastic big brother!  And I tell you it got me sooo excited for the moment when Will will meet his own baby sister!

Here are a couple of favorites:

Handing Chloe off to Kristy for the first time!

That afternoon when I returned to the hospital Brandon’s sweet little face as he entered the room was priceless.  He was hesitant at first, but then he rushed up to meet his sister!
