Not long ago, we were capturing this sweet mama’s maternity session. Now, I’m so excited to share that he’s here! Nehemiah Shalom made his grand entrance weighing 8 lbs 6 oz and measuring 20 inches long.
His name carries such a powerful and beautiful meaning—“God’s Comfort and Peace.”Nehemiah is a double rainbow baby, a wonderful blessing after loss. His mama experienced two miscarriages between her youngest daughter and him.. He is a symbol of hope, healing, and the strength of his family.
For his newborn session, we made sure to incorporate things that reflect his family’s story. Since we had the deer sighting during the maternity session, we knew we had to include deer antlers in his shoot! We also included a baby's first golf set (a nod to dad’s favorite sport), sweet sibling poses with his proud big sisters, and of course, simple, timeless neutral shots of just baby.
It has been such an honor to document this family’s journey. Seeing them welcome their first little boy has been so special, and I can’t wait to watch Nehemiah grow!

Sometimes, all the stars align to give us the perfect evening for a photoshoot, and this session was no exception. With the weather being so unpredictable lately, it was such a relief to finally have a beautiful evening to capture this maternity session. I’ve had the honor of photographing all of her maternity and newborn sessions. Watching this family grow over the years has been so much fun. From the arrival of her first baby to now, as she prepares to welcome her fourth little one — and her first boy after three girls. This session came with a surprise guest! As I was planning the next pose, a deer wandered out of the woods. I quickly positioned mom and dad to include the deer in the background, and it worked perfectly. It felt like it was meant to be. I can’t help but feel like it’s a sign — we have to incorporate something deer-related into their newborn session! I can’t wait to meet your baby boy. I know you will have lots of helpful hand eager to hold their new brother. If you’re considering a maternity session, I’d love to help you celebrate this beautiful season of life. Whether it’s in my studio or an outdoor evening like this one, let’s create timeless memories together.
