Fresh 48

Maternity + Fresh 48 | The Quinlan Family

The journey to parenthood isn’t always an easy one. And even though I don’t know details of the Quinlan’s journey, I know it was a long road. They were overjoyed to be pregnant and completely over the moon to set eyes on their new baby boy Patrick when he arrived in early January.

I had the luxury of taking their maternity photos back in the peak of fall and we had an adventure. Hands down one of my favorites maternity sessions ever. I chose a few new locations within a favorite park of mine, trying to take advantage of the amazing fall evening we had. Fall was peaking and the weather was warm for the end of October. It was so perfect for this deserving couple. Erica and Quin were so trusting and flexible in allowing me to trek them all over the park and well……the results were fantastic. Erica was especially stunning.

Fast forward to January: Patrick arrived on January 8th, one day before his due date. We had a Fresh 48 session in the hospital to document his sweet newness. Erica and Quin gazed lovingly at their baby boy and grandma and grandpa joined in with pics with their first grandbaby.

Welcome Patrick - you are so loved and you have already brought your parents and grandparents so much joy.

Thanks to Erica and Quin for sharing this special time with me and allowing me to be a part of it. I’m truly grateful to have been part of your journey.

Fresh | Indianapolis Newborn Photographer

New life, new love, and so much to look forward to.  The Van Klompenburg's welcomed Artie into the world on December 6th and they are more than over the moon over this kid.  He's lanky and ready to dominate all of the "tall kid" sports.  (:  I had the luxury of shooting their Fresh 48 session (new offering of mine!) at Methodist Hospital when he was a fresh 29 hours old.  So raw, so emotional.  I was humbled by Nicole and Ryan's grace and patience even though they are first time parents.  It's like they knew exactly who Artie was going to be and he was placed right in there arms for this very reason....to be their son.  I cannot wait to watch this little big guy grow this year.
