This family is close to my heart. Four months ago, I photographed Amanda and Jonathan as they searched for a little one who needed a family to join theirs. Isn’t it amazing how quickly things can happen? With a flurry of preparation, research, and incredible dedication (Amanda induced lactation, which is no small thing) they prepared their hearts and their homes for this little lady. She has been so longed for and prayed for by her parents as well as a whole community who loves them and now her. I love how much their own personalities are reflected in their parenting… they balance each other so well, and take such joy in this little girl!
These two were so sweet! Joseph has this wry sense of humor, and Brittany has a darling giggle, so together, they’re just a blast to be around. In addition to all of the adorable couple-ness (I know, not a word, just work with me here), did you check out that ring? Seriously, it’s beautiful. Look for yourself!





I can’t believe it’s been a year since I’ve shared this lovely family with you. There is a sweet baby girl just biding her time to arrive any day now. And big sister? Well, she’s not only super excited for her baby sister, but as expressive and fun as ever. Enough talking about it; though, go see for yourself!
