Ella Isabelle and Her Story

       About 5 months ago I found out my aunt was pregnant. It came as a surprise because she was four or five months along and didn't know it. My excitement grew at the prospect of gaining a fourth cousin and yet another little girl. I bugged Susan every month to take maternity photos and it wasn't until two Saturday's ago she agreed.

      So I got up early and drove to Canby at 9am and by 11 we were done. The shoot went awesome although we ended up completely rearranging her living room. I got home and uploaded the photos and was thrilled to see some amazing shots.

     Less than 12 hours later she went into labor. We got the text and figured we would stop by, say hi, and return in the morning to see Ella Isabelle. That plan quickly went out the window because Ella was well on her way to entering the world and decided to come fast. Four hours later, at 2:04 am Ella Isabelle was born, and though a little blue, she was beautiful. 

    We returned the next morning where I got a few shots of her in the hospital and then a week later did an infant shoot. She never quite got to sleep but the photos turned out beautiful regardless. I've discovered- I have a thing for baby feet. 

Welcome to the world little miss Ella! We're all so happy you're here- I can't wait to take photos of you as you grow up.

Loves,

    Cousin Katie

Here are a few of my favorite shots:

Look at those feet!
