I am very happy how this maternity studio session with the Jung family turned out. They are such a lovely couple. I am sure they are going to be great parents.  Eric, thank you so much for your help in the studio!!!

I realized that I haven't been blogging for a long while. I wanted to post a few sweet angels that I got to photograph in the last few weeks.

First I would like to introduce Tyson. It was Tyson`s first birthday a few weeks ago and he already mastered walking!! Chubby cheeks,  curly hair, wonderful expressions, what else can you ask for:)




  Second beauty that I would like to introduce is YooJung. She was only a week old when I met her.
  She is so pretty like her mom:)


Last but not least are the Noel sisters. Layla is only 9 days old in these pictures. She arrived about 2 weeks earlier than her due date. You can already tell that she is going to be a heart breaker like her older sister!!

What is a doula?

A doula is a trained and experienced professional who provides continuous
physical, emotional and informational support to the mother and her partner
before, during and just after birth, as well as provides emotional and
practical support during the postpartum period.

Studies have shown that when doulas attend birth, labors are shorter with
fewer complications, babies are healthier and they breastfeed more easily.
