Sleeping Beauty

Sweet Ellianne was asleep from the moment I arrived. She slept through several outfit changes and multiple poses. What you might ask was our secret? Well besides the fact that she is an absolute angel, her parents swear by the YouTube shushing video. It played during the entire session and I’ll admit it was very relaxing.

Of course she had moments of stirring where we would pause to gently rock and reassure. And my favorite thing she would do is fall back asleep mid cry with her adorable mouth still open. I couldn’t help but let a soft chuckle slip out as I captured her silly expressions.

Kat and Greg, it has been truly incredible to walk with you guys through this journey. From the day you found out you were pregnant, to your maternity session, baby shower and now her newborn photos. This darling girl is so very loved. I know the nights are long and this stage seems to last forever as you figure out how to be parents, but I promise it will go by in a blink and you will wonder if she was ever really this small. I pray for peace and rest for you both as you are starting one of the most important jobs God has tasked us with.
