Introducing our baby boy!

December 31, 2009

Kinzie Nowell Jones was born on Christmas morning at home~our very own Christmas gift from God! We had an amazing birth experience and are absolutely blessed. All my boys have been wonderful and we couldn’t be happier-exhausted but happy!!!!

I am sorry to say we just haven’t had the energy to get out props and backgrounds and lights and take some professional photos of our baby. I think Landrie was 19 days old when we finally managed to do that, and by then, of course, he was well past the sleepy newborn stage where you can pose them in all kinds of crazy ways and they’ll sleep right through it. Maybe we’ll get it done in the coming days…but for now, we just have some snapshots to share of our little man, and that will have to do!

Keri Maes: Congratulations Andrea and Keith; Kinzie is absolutely beautiful!!!

sammy oxendahl: My heart melts!!! I can't wait to hold him! Love the image of him and big brother. Who needs props and backdrops when you can get these kind of images. Beautiful work! See you tomorrow!!

Janna: What an amazing gift!! He is so handsome Andrea and I'm so glad that things went well and that you guys are doing good. These pictures are so dang sweet and they were fun to see.

On leave!

We are expecting our Christmas baby any day now, so I am officially on maternity leave. I will be spending the next weeks with my family and new baby. We wish you all a wonderful holiday season and thank you for your support and your business. God bless!

I’m sure many of you remember my first assistant and dear friend, Darcy. She is due just four weeks after I am, though she looks a heckuva lot better than some of us that have gained almost 50 pounds already! I was so excited to be able to move around enough still to do her maternity portraits. She and Caleb and baby boy were all great fun and we got some wonderful images from the session. Here’s a peek! She is so young, beautiful, and radiant…I can’t wait for the baby to arrive!!!!!

ginny: last one is my fave!

Darcy Hoy: Wow Andrea! You never cease to amaze me with your talent! I am so excited about the images, you would laugh if you knew the number of times I have looked at them. I would tell you which one is my favorite, but I truly love so many of them I can't decide. I can't wait to show these to our baby boy someday!
