In-Home Newborn: Baby J | Brighton, MI

The days are long but the years are short.

Now that my youngest is four and 55 lbs of muscle and lingering baby chub, this old expression cannot be any truer for me. When you’re in the thick of the sleepless nights, endless diaper changes, and anxiously awaiting every next milestone, it seems like the chaotic pace will never end. But yet, inevitably, one day you look up and your little bundle is a (mostly) self-reliant walking and talking human being.  Where does the time go?

It has been a few years since I’ve had the opportunity to photograph a newborn. What a joy it was to pick up where I left off.  Especially with Baby J, who was long awaited and then arrived in a rush. It seems impossible that she was welcomed into the world one month ago. Congrats, Barr Family! I can’t wait to watch this little girl grow alongside her awesome big sister!
