Family Session by Rachel Parsons | Atlanta Photography

You guys! I’m not really quite sure if I can truly explain the depth of gratitude I have for my sweet friend Rachel Parsons for creating such beautiful memories of me and my family. I look at the photos and my heart swoons every time! I’m so in love with them!!! And now I can officially and formally introduce my little babe Brayden here on the website.

I have of course, circulated my own photos of him on social media but now I have this collection that includes all four of us. Seeing my own family photos with our sweet little Brayden reminds me (even more) that photos are so important. I don’t have many baby pictures with Jordan (crazy right and he’s the first born) and I slacked off more so when he hit adolescent. Regretfully, often times I wish I had more photos of us. I knew right away I would be more diligent with photos of myself and Brayden. Rachel did such an amazing job. I love the interaction between Jordan and Brayden. Since we’ve brought babe home, Jordan has been smitten with his baby brother. Our home is filled with all the fuzzy feels. And my heart couldn’t be more full.

For the first few weeks Brayden was probably the easiest little babe to care for. But as my luck would have it, he got fussy on the day of photos. But Rachel did her thing and sweet Brayden’s (at the time, almost) one month old personality really came through. My little babe loves being held and yes I’m bias, he makes the cutest face expressions even when crying.

Everyone has asked how it’s been starting over and I love replying with “It’s been great!” Cause it really has! Though the newborn stage is a rough one, I have truly loved every second of it. No one enjoys sleepless nights but every little moment with Brayden is a moment I cherish and want to savor. I’ve fallen in love all over again! I’m reminded of the sweet joy motherhood entails. I can tell you guys right now, when your child hits the pre-teen/teen years, it feels as though the sweet days are far and between. It’s a beautiful feeling all over again cause a newborn really does bring hope, possibilities and new dreams. I’m just so in love with my baby boy y’all.
