Announcing – Baby Cormick

One man and one woman who’ve been waiting for their child
plus
One child who was waiting for the perfect parents
equals
one family that was meant to be

Julie and Greg allowed me to to help them celebrate the adoption of their son, Cormick, with an absolutely creative photo shoot.  I stayed in their home, turning it into a working studio for two days, and basically photographed to my heart’s content. And then they let me have total freedom in designing the coolest baby announcement ever.

I’m so honored to have been part of this process with Julie and Greg – helping them build their adoption portfolio and life book by photographing them as a couple, following Julie on her journey to the west coast when she went to pick up her son, following her facebook posts when her husband came back from his 6 month deployment a few weeks later and held his son for the first time. And then, finally, being able to photograph them as a family.

Julie is one of those people who knows everybody! And some of the responses she’s been getting about the baby announcement are worth sharing, as is the baby announcement itself. Of course we geared it to be more of an adoption announcement than a birth announcement, but the effect is the same – celebrating joy and parenthood and little 7 week old Cormick.  As Julie says, “what’s meant to be will always find its way”. And it did.

Enjoy the announcement, a trifold printed on linen paper.
