OKLAHOMA CITY/EDMOND OKLAHOMA NEWBORN, CHILD AND FAMILY DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHER/TRASH TRUCK BIRTHDAY
Our little trash truck loving tot turned TWO…uh, nearly 6 months ago! Who knew we’d be throwing a trash bash for Emma? It all started with, well, trash! Trash was one of her first words after dada, mama, hi, bye, and ball. “Trash” quickly turned into trash truck with one video of a trash truck in action after dinner one night with her daddy. Since then, we’ve accumulated many toy trash trucks and do our best to get to the driveway early enough on Tuesdays to wave to the trash man. We even had a really cool opportunity to go visit the local trash trucks and see them up close at work. SHE.WAS.THRILLED!
Emma’s trash bash turned out perfectly, besides the whole pandemic thing. She was oblivious and it gave me a fun excuse to be extra crafty with her invitations.
Her love for trash trucks continues, along with excavators, cranes, dump trucks, bulldozers…the list goes on if it’s large, loud, or has wheels.
Her love for the Happy Birthday song? Maybe next year…
*special shout to my mom and sisters for helping me dominate ‘operation decorate during nap’!
What’s better than a December birthday? Sharing it with your bestie! The girls’ forced friendship began when they were only 6 months old at a…
Here’s a walk down memory lane…
…but both will be a pretty special walk down memory lane when we are finally well passed this pandemic, don’t ya think?
I’m equally as proud of my husband for running a great half marathon as I am of…
Maybe we will look back on these days and say “those were the days.”
OKLAHOMA CITY/EDMOND NEWBORN, CHILD AND FAMILY DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHER | OKLAHOMA CITY ZOO
We checked off another first for Emma at the Oklahoma City Zoo! I love watching (and documenting!) as she experiences new adventures.
14 photos to remember the 14 minutes we lasted in the snow today!
Happy birthday, Emma Hope. My new dream in life is to make sure you experience the same joy you have given me. I love you.
2018, you were something special as I chased these kids and those sunsets while carrying our precious, long-awaited girl.
Emma is spoiled with her Daddy’s love, and I’m spoiled watching my dream come true.
Every age, milestone and memory has been my favorite, but seeing her…
I imagined myself in a cozy room with a baby in my arms for so many years that I ached to bring it to life.
He is so loved and I think you’ll see just how much in these images.
And as I sit here trying to formulate the last year into words fitting for all the feelings, our baby girl is kicking me, making it nearly impossible to imagine traveling any other way with anyone else to get where we are today.
My Simple Hello sessions are my very favorite to document, especially with first time parents.
This round was different. I went in completely prepared and full of hope knowing that no matter what, I'd be strong enough for any outcome. I had just survived the biggest blow of my life, so worst case scenario?
