Such a handsome little guy 💙

I had the absolute privilege of capturing the birth of my first nephew (4th birth I’ve photographed for my sisters)
His mama was an absolute champ and completely ROCKED this delivery!
✨✨✨
We had Christmas dinner on Christmas Eve and afterwards little mad decided we were having too much fun without him. I got a text at 3am that they were admitted and in the hospital.
We spent Christmas Day celebrating as normal though with much anticipation and many check ins to make sure we weren’t going to miss anything.
10pm I headed to the hospital as things were ramping up! Unfortunately it slowed down a bit but we hung out together all night and had a beautiful, healthy, baby boy before the sun was up!

Merry merry Christmas to all! 🎁
