Being granted entry into the home of a family who has recently welcomed a new baby into the world is a privilege and a gift. It is a hazy time full of new and fleeting moments. My invitation and experience in the home of the Joujan family was a powerfully tender one.

The moment I stepped in I was surrounded by a feeling of warmth. My eyes were filled with color, light, texture and my heart was wrapped with their love and comfort. Their family bond and tender care for one another was both visible and palpable. Lauren and Alex have crafted a home and a life so full of sweetness and care for their children and for one another. It was immediately clear that there was so much to capture in sharing their family story. It was hard for me to stop photographing. Each photographed moment between Lauren, Alex, Chloe, Dawson, and baby Teagan in their gorgeously colorful house felt blessed and special. I am so thankful to have been invited into their sacred and beautiful space. Thank you beautiful family.

Dad always give Dawson stellar airplane rides! Chloe dances and jumps in her ruby slippers.

A few moments of vulnerability.

Lauren told me that Alex always kisses the baby after swaddling her. The tender moment. 

So full of Love and Joy
