miracle

i am fascinated by emotion. by real human connection. by life. by real life. so to be asked to document the birth of their second child was a phenomenal opportunity for me. the emotion of such a beautiful moment. the connection between a parent and their child is as real. as raw. as incredible as it comes. i so grateful to have met these two beautiful people whom i’ve had the pleasure of getting to know over the last few years. from thier connection session. to their wedding day. to capturing images of their first baby girl and now the birth of their second. it has been a wonderful journey. thank you Joyce and Sean for putting your confidence and trust in me and my camera. i am forever grateful.

we never dreamed you’d be so beautiful…
in all of the times we tried to imagine
every last detail of who you would be,
thru all of the nights we spent quietly thinking
of how we would feel
when we first looked at you,
we patiently waited
and silently wondered.
We hoped and we prayed
and we tried to imagine…
but we never dreamed you’d be so beautiful.

Ben - I was able to do this (to an extent) for my first born 7 weeks ago and treasure them more than anything I own. I did mine all in B&W as well and think it works amazingly.

Joyce & Sean - For over a week now I have been unable to come up with words that would express our deepest gratitude for these pictures and their beauty. Thank you for being there with us for such a personal and emotional journey. We will forever treasure these images and the day that they represent.

Michelle W - Very beautiful images of a beautiful family. They were lucky to have you. You were lucky to be there as well. Such a special gift for each of you to share.

Lori Loree - Ive been thinking about offering to photograph a birth as well. I don’t have anything lined up but am toying with the idea of putting it out there.

I guess after going through it myself (and wishing I had photos), the emotion and pain of it would be awesome to capture.

Love the images.

Carrie - These images are powerful, Gabe.

Bartek Witek - Gaining the amount of trust from a client to photograph such a personal occasion tells a lot about you…
Beautifully captured :)

Jessica R - When photos of complete strangers can bring tears to my eyes, you know the photographer captured the moment perfectly. Very nice.

jesszwo - What a wonderful experience, beautifully captured. I’m sure these photos will mean the WORLD to them.
