This was my first hospital visit as a photographer. I was so excited and I can not WAIT until I have the opportunity to do this again!!

Thank you to the Ordway Family for allowing me to take part in such a personal moment in your lives!

My goal for this type of visit was to capture life. Real life. Some folks call this "Lifestyle Photography".

Mom really wanted me to capture the older siblings meeting their sister for the first time. What a joy this was. I left the hospital with sore cheeks because I was smiling the entire time!! lol

It was quiet when I arrived as Dad was picking the older kids up. A perfect time to capture Mom and Baby.

After a while, we could see the rest of the family arrive out of the room window. It was quite exciting! We could hear them coming down the hallway with excitement to see their Mom and new sister.

Alice was especially expressive over her excitement!! Biggest brother Connor was so helpful with his little brother and sister. He immediately picked Alice up so she could get her first peek at her new sister. Jack was a bit more shy, but soon he wanted to get his hands on her as well! Time to hold the baby... Big brother was first. Alice was not very happy about that! lol

This is life. Wecome to the world, Emma!
