Mini Cooper - Home Sweet Home

Mom holds him like she has held no other, Dad looks at him with a glimpse of his future in his eyes and Cooper, well Cooper just laughs and smiles knowing that everything is going to be alright.

It was a glorious morning, the house was warm and the dogs were barking. Nate met me at the front door of their home instead of the entry door to the NICU. Julie walked through the kitchen door with Cooper in her arms instead of motioning me over to his hospital crib. How different was this, and how wonderful it was. I couldn't wait to hold him, to touch his smooth baby skin and give him a million kisses! And kiss him I did!

Here is the third installment of my sessions with Mini Cooper. If you're not sure what a miracle looks like...keep scrolling.

For those of you that are unfamiliar with his story, please take some time and visit my first two posts on his families journey to bring him home. Here he is...home sweet home! (and the laugh in this kid is like no other I have ever heard...no joke)

Brooklyn, NY Wedding Photography - Felipe & Laura!

I was so excited to have Laura's mother Susan ask me to be the photographer for Laura's wedding.  Come on...who could pass it up? A gorgeous couple, NYC and the Brooklyn Bridge....I mean this is fledgling photographers dream!

The day started a little bumpy for me when my Garmin decided to go on the fritz through the Lincoln tunnel...but it was all good after that. The wedding and reception were held at The River Cafe just at the base of the Brooklyn Bridge. Oh...was it sweet...and the weather, sunny all day, warm and a beautiful sunset.

I hadn't seen Laura since she was a teenager when her mother and I used to work together..so it was a wonderful experience getting to see the beautiful young woman she has grown into. I didn't meet Felipe until the wedding...and what a charmer he is! My thanks to Laura and Felipe again for allowing me to share this wonderful day with them. I hope my images can do your memory justice! Without further ado I present Laura and Filipe's wedding...

So even though this was taken at the end of the evening...I just had to start with it because I love this view... the cafe is right below the bridge all lit up... what  a view!
