meeting samantha

I photographed Nick and Rebecca Grobe's wedding last year, so I was honored when they asked me to take the first pictures of their new baby girl, Samantha. I couldn't wait to meet her, and I expected her to be like most newborns- sleepy. However, little Samantha was wide-eyed throughout most of the shoot. Her beautiful blue eyes sparkled, and she already had her own personality. Nick is being deployed to Afghanistan next month, so we also wanted him to have some photos to take with him. I am so appreciative of what he does for our country, and I'm glad I could be a part of helping him have a little piece of home with him. It was such a pleasure to work with them again!

Ella in one word- gorgeous. Those huge blue eyes are so beautiful to photograph, and in these photos you can really see her explorative personality...
