Our First Official Family Picture!

February 25th, 2008

Many of you will remember our awesome maternity session with Jessica Claire from December. She did such an amazing job that we asked her to shoot our first family pictures as well! I was a little nervous because every time I try to take Brayden’s picture he either cries or pees on me, but Jessica was very patient. It also helped that our house was about 90 degrees so he could be comfy in his birthday suit, but Brayden really loved her! And yes, I still got peed on during the shoot, but it was worth it! Thank you so much to Jessica for capturing this special time in our lives. We will treasure these pictures!

She is the one responsible for making my hair and makeup look so fabulous! It’s not easy to find the time to do your hair and make up when you’re a new mom so I really appreciate Viv fitting me in so last minute. If you need your hair and makeup done for your wedding, engagement shoot, or any other special occasion book Vivian! Not only is she super talented, she’s also one of the nicest people I’ve ever met! Thank you Viv!
