Let’s not forget the ƄisaƄuelos

When Peyton was born, she spent some time in the NICU before she could be held or released from the hospital. But when she got home on Thanksgiving, hers, hers, her lover, Bill, was there for her to give her all the hugs she had accumulated in the meantime.

Grandfathering Lessons

This newborn had a big Ƅenʋen party waiting, including a very special guest. “There were so many people in the room. The whole family huddled together after mommy gave birth and I looked through the gaps between people to see how they teach the baby how to hold her first grandchild,” said photographer Kasie Tanner. “Everyone settled in the room and cried with him. Me too! So sweet!”

Grace meets grace

Timing is everything. “I fled a handful of times that I had to stop shooting because the tears wouldn’t stop coming out. This was one of those moments,” said photographer Neely Ker-Fox.

“Absolutely nothing could wipe the smiles off their faces,” said photographer Casey Hendrickson. “It was really the sweetest thing to see them welcome this new kid to their lives.”
