Reese is just 3 days older than Tylden. She’s the brand new niece of one my awesome brides, who gave her sister a newborn session with me as one of her shower gifts. I was honored.

My second little boy, Tylden, was born on March 25 weighing in at 8 lbs 6 ozs. It was truly an amazing day and I was so blessed to have my friend and madly talented photographer, Courtney Ortiz, at the hospital to capture it for us. I had a scheduled c-section (doctor’s orders) and at the last minute my parents got stuck in Colorado because of a snowstorm, so Courtney not only photographed everything, but she also watched Tylden’s big brother Tookie in the hospital for us while I was in surgery. She’s posted some amazing photos of Tookie on her blog from the hospital (more to come!). They make me ridiculously happy and I am so so grateful to have her as a friend.
Recovery has been so much easier the second time around and although I’m still sore and tired, I feel surprisingly good for having surgery less than a week ago. And Tylden has been such a good baby, sleeping like a champ at night and generally being such a happy little guy. I love having two boys. Tookie is absolutely in love with his baby brother and calls him “Baby Ty”. Here’s a few photo of Baby Ty I took at home yesterday.



Reflecting on 2009, I am so grateful to all the awesome people I’ve met because of my camera. Picking my favorite images from the year was so hard! I could easily add 30 more. Thank you all for trusting me to capture the important moments in your lives. I’ve loved every second of it and I can’t wait to see what 2010 brings.
