Call this a very selfish blog post. Way out of order… baby Leah jumped into first spot for blogging this weekend. Sorry other mommies! I have been friends with this family for a while now. Before I really picked a camera up. I have followed her girls around taking pictures and filling walls up from here to Louisiana. I blogged Leah’s mommies belly pictures a few months ago. You can see those here. We knew Leah would be special from the get go because she was girl #4 for that household. No one really knew how special until she arrived. He are is Leah’s debut. Not as we had originally planned but even more special. No one but God know why we are faced with what comes our way but we accept, adapt and grow. Making way for what its true purpose will be! Here she is.. a little peanut of a girl who loves her milk and who is so wanted to be seen by her two big sissys!
and finally me and Leah… talk about a very hands-on photographer!

I am crying. Thanks for giving us a face for the name we have been lifting up in prayer!
Oh Jaime! I am in tears right now! Betsy–Leah is BEAUTIFUL, and sooooo strong! You can see it in her eyes. Thank you so much for sharing!!! What wonderful, inspirational, moving, and amazing pictures.
Oh Jaime! I know Betsy will appreciate these pics you did for her!!! I know there are some shots I wish we had gotten of Bella in the NICU. You are a wonderful friend to do that for them!! Very beautiful pictures and they tug at my heart!
Wow! Jaime, you are so amazingly talented! I’m in tears though I don’t even know these people. I’m truly speechless.
jaime–these are beautiful. one of my best friends lived through the nightmare of newborn open heart surgery and though not professional, they treasure those heartbreaking pictures to know how far God has brought their sweet baby girl. you have such an amazing gift.
Jaime… my eyes are watery and my lips are quivering while I sit here at work and look at the above photos. WOW! I know the family will enjoy looking back at them for years to come. I could not imagine going through what this mother and family have endured.
Tears in my eyes, so hard to see such a little angel have to go through something like that but she looks like she is strong! You are so right, we don’t always understand why but God has his reasons!
These images brought tears to my eyes. What precious treasures for this family – she is so beautiful and you did an incredible job of capturing her strong little spirit. Beautiful job!!
