Baby Dean is so incredibly lucky and so incredibly loved.

Miracle babies like Dean don't always have the easiest time arriving but they always bring such joy and happiness with them. He was welcomed by his doting parents and as well as grandparents - they flew across the Atlantic and even knitted the most adorable outfits. The love and devotion for Dean came through in every frame and it was difficult to narrow it down without going completely overboard.

I've known Michelle for a few years now, having photographed her (and her furry baby!) a few times before. The four legged furry baby may now have some competition for attention, but he's not going anywhere anytime soon. It has been such a privilege to get to call her my friend and not only a client. I am beyond happy to have had the chance to document this new chapter in her life and get to know her family and new normal. We started our photographic journey on the beach, but have continued on to the nursery which may not have the same views but certainly has more magic. 

We captured some amazing moments, from Dean's budding Arsenal fandom (he's a quick study) to tears of joy. I hope you love looking through these photos as much as I loved capturing them.
