Happy Father's day to all the Fathers, Grandfathers, Brothers and Husbands who are out there each and every day working hard to create an amazing life for his family. I am fortunate enough to have had a father who always believed that I could do anything and then I was even more fortunate to find a husband who lifts up my children in the same way. Dads you are appreciated and loved for all the BIG and the little things you do.

Congratulations to our newest Fathers. These two babies were born just days apart and both were photographed on day 9. This is the second child for both families and it was an honor to photography both of your children. I'm so happy for you both.

New babies come at you like a tornado. No matter how much you plan or how much you learn, there is always something unexpected that will come at you out of nowhere. Everyone who has babies has run out of diapers, forgot to write down a feeding, forgot to pick up the first child because the you were napping with the new child. Seriously, life is going to happen. But what if your tornado moment is an unexpected LONGER stay in the hospital? I had two Mom's this week tell me that they missed their newborn portraits because there baby had to stay in the hospital. I was immediately sad both times and inquired how long they had to stay. One was 3 weeks and one was only 2 weeks and both equally thought they MISSED it. If you are nervous about the upcoming birth of your baby, I say to you - don't worry about portraits. At Ellenburg Photography, We've got this.

I'd like YOU to meet baby Jace photographed at 20 days.
