As many of you know, newborn photography is among one of my favorite things in the world. These tiny humans melt my heart over and over again. I’m so amazed my them and their teeny tiny fingers and toes. The smell of that sweet spot on the top of their heads. I’m pretty obsessed with all things baby. Remember that sweet baby that came into the world earlier this month, finallllly here are his newborn photos! This babe was so sweet for me, i just wanted to take him home with me!
Andrew wasn’t too keen on getting any photos with his new baby brother.. but i mean, come on, he’s two. I try to tell all my moms of newborns with a 2 year old (or younger!) that getting a sweet image of the new baby with older sibling isn’t always feasible.. baby’s safety is my first concern, always, and with those little toddlers, who knows what you’re gonna get. We were trying to get a family photo and claire said, “here’s our christmas card image, ‘we have a new baby! and our two year old is a jerk'”. HA!
oh this sweet yawn! love!


little pouty lips.. so so sweet.


see what i mean about those itty bitty toes?! i’ll admit i nibbled on those sweet toes a little.
oh claire, you are so beautiful!!
i adore this image of brycen w baby Albie!

c+b… congrats again on baby Albie, he’s absolutely perfect!! I love him to pieces! and you know i adore you both! thank you for trusting me to capture these precious images of your boy. xxJBZ

tell us a little about your birth story:
I’m very proud of both of my c-sections but this second time around was very different and recovery was much more difficult.
Because Albie was full term (unlike his brother), nursing came much easier to both of us, which was awesome!
Details of Albie’s delivery day is very foggy, which is why I’m so grateful for Jenny and her beautiful pictures of my son’s birth!
how did big brother andrew react to having a new brother:
The first time Andrew met Albie in the hospital he was very sweet and adorable. However, that story changed when we got home 5 days later and Andrew realized Baby was here to stay.
He’s mostly loving and accepting but Andrew is still adjusting.
what ‘must haves’ should expecting moms make sure to have in their hospital bag?
This is coming from a mom who checked into the hospital with full hair and makeup…but here are my three “must haves” for your (c-section) hospital bag. Good news, you can get it all at Walmart!
1.) The biggest granny-panties you can find. Parachute size should suffice.
2.) Large/oversized pajamas with a top that buttons down the front for easy access
3. Chap stick
most helpful baby product or shower gift as a brand new mom:
surprisingly, i’m kind of a minimalist in the baby “stuff” department. Those first few weeks I’m a big fan of Komodo onesies, plenty of receiving blankets and a Rock N play sleeper.
best piece of advice given to you:
Your children don’t think you are doing a bad job, so you shouldnt either.

Just do what works for you and don’t forget to make time for each other. (Unless that doesn’t work for you, in which case just do what you want!)
