This summer I got to spend time at the beach with some of my favourite families. I have photographed their births, documented their pregnancies, taken their first family photos after a new baby arrived, and taken the photo they’ve used on their Christmas card.

Every September I’m amazed at how many of the brand new babies I’ve photographed are starting kindergarten and this year is no different. Four years ago my youngest son was born in May and it’s so special to see all the babies I photographed in the months after he was born getting ready to start school at the same time that he is.
