Love at First Sight

I have been waiting, some days impatiently, for the arrival of our 2nd son...waited 40 weeks to the day in fact. But just as the good Lord would have it in His perfect timing, our beautiful baby boy entered into the world on January 18th, making our lives that much more blessed.

STATS:
7.5 lbs
20 " long

The 2 photos above were taken by my oh so talented and sweet sister in law, who got the call from us at 5am to say we were on our way to the hospital. She made it just in time, because this little sweet baby of ours was out the shoot by 8:53am. ~ The bottom 5 photos were taken by our aspiring photographer eldest daughter. (I just had the fun of editing these this time!)

My own pregger bod before the debut

The other day I was thinking...hmmm, I better get to taking the pictures of this big'ol belly of mine before our son makes his big debut. We are at 38 weeks here.

Sam's First Photoshoot!

As I get ready to pop out my own baby in a matter of days, I could not say no to one more photo shoot - why?! Because it was of a baby of course! Just wanted to share a montage I created of this little cutie pie.

Truen's Newborn Photo Shoot

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE newborn babies! Who doesn't I wonder?
Thank you to Brian and Betsy for allowing me the privilege to share these sweet images!

Betsy's Maternity Shoot

How I do a Maternity Shoot: I will come to your home with my cameras, lighting, & background set up's. It is a very intimate and often very private event to get your belly photos taken and so I believe it is nicer to come into a family's home to do the photo shoot itself. Weather permitting, I also enjoy taking momma's outdoors for more unique and beautiful shots.

Many of the photos I take of individuals I would not share on my blog due to the intimate nature of these images, but I am of the belief that pregnancy should be celebrated and commemorated.

Being a woman myself and a mother of one (with one on the way), I understand how to, and really enjoy taking photos of this time in a woman's life. Whether you bare it all or cover up... or a little of both, your photo shoot is your own and we will work together to make it what you want it to be!

Welcoming a handsome baby boy!

I had the most precious opportunity to be present for yet another baby delivery!

I had ring side seats to an amazing cesarean birth this week. Thank you to the doctors and nurses who allowed me such a privilege to do so! And a Thank you! to Brian and Betsy for this sincere gift of allowing me to document your amazing day! ~xo~ Jenn

LABOR & DELIVERY

New to LIT - Jenn has started an adventure of her own in Labor and Delivery photography. She calls it BUTTERFLY ON THE WALL. It is an area Jenn has wanted to get into since having her first baby in 2007.

Obviously, since this is such a private event, we can only show you a sampling of what Jenn documents. If you are interested in having Jenn be a part of your birth story, please contact her via email at jen@lit-pics.com.


It was so amazing to be a part of Rachel and James' labor story. I will never forget it and hopefully we will all stay in touch for many years to come!

It's not often that moms are ready to have someone come into their house to take pictures just days after they've been home from the hospital, but Rachel allowed me this special privilege as well. Here are a few shots from that.


COMMENTS:
"Wanted to let you know we were blessed to share this experience with you. Having you there was like having a caring professional friend in the room, even tho we had just met! You are the perfect person for this venue and I wish His blessings on your passion to portray! We loved having you photograph Rachel and James' blessed event. Your presence was unobtrusive and COMFORTING!"

Free Birth photography session for first 2-3 mommas to be!

I, Jenn, have had the dream/desire to photograph the intimacy and miracle of birth ever since having my own [long awaited] child. Also having a nursing background where I have seen births take place, my heart is pulled towards both new mommies and babies alike.

For a couple of years now, I have tossed around the idea of photographing the labor and birth moments for people who desire to have this most precious time documented and will offer my services FREE to my first 2-3 mommies to be!!

If you are pregnant and would like the opportunity to meet with me about such documentation, please contact me at lit-pics@lit-pics.com.
