I spent the day hanging out at the hospital with Laura and Jackie and the family. This entire family is very important to Nathan and I, and the kids... without them, we have no idea how we would function on day to day basis! They mean the world to us! We love Laura and Jackie and wee Baby Adaley very much!!!
The day started off slowly enough...
And although it seemed to drag a bit there in the middle, suddenly, somewhere around 5:30 or so... everything started moving incredibly fast!
I was allowed back for what we thought was just going to be a moment or two...
But they never kicked me out... and Adaley came after a mere 6 pushes!
I grabbed this picture, and ran it out to the family in the waiting room. It was such an emotional time!
Jackie could not stop kissing his new little girl.
Heartbreaker!
Meeting the family!
Laura is such a beautiful new mom... She's an incredible trooper. I am SO proud!
One last image of Baby Adaley...
To all of the family who was not able to be there today... you were very missed, and you are very loved. Jackie cannot wait to show his little girl off to his parents!
I hope you enjoy the slideshow!!!
We love you!

Amber & Nathan,
What a blessing you guys are. I watched this slideshow and couldn't contain the tears, happiness, and anticipation. You see we are expecting our second little girl in Jan and this just pushed me over the edge. You really know how to tell a story. I felt like I was there in the room with ya'll. Thanks for sharing those.
WOW what wonderful images... I had to brush the tears away after watching the slideshow...
OMG, those are amazing. You're shooting mine in 10 years right??? :)
They're going to cherish those images for the rest of their lives.
Love you guys and can't wait to see you soon.
Amber, You are so amazing in the hospital and in homes! Each image is so touching. I have to agree that all of these are so much more moving in black and white. I can't even pick a favorite because they all perfectly tell a story. From the first (wonderful light and composition) to the last (the angle and composition)...they are just incredible! wow!
