I had the honor of photographing baby Jame’s newborn session this past week in Dallas. Capturing the journey of a family through photographs is such a heartwarming experience, especially when it’s a family that you’ve had the privilege of photographing year after year. In this newborn session, I had the honor of meeting little J, the newest addition to a loving family who has welcomed their fifth-generation baby boy with open arms. J’s mom Kelsey, has an eye for style and their traditional home with vibrant colors in the master bedroom, served as the perfect backdrop for these images.

I photographed big sister’s newborn session almost two years ago and now she is an outgoing toddler with a bright smile and loves her big brother. You can tell she loves her brother as she curiously peeked over at him and asked to hold him, already protective and fascinated by him. Every photograph from this session told a beautiful story of new beginnings, sibling love, and the start of another chapter in their family’s legacy. James’ arrival was not just the addition of a baby, but a continuation of a family story that dates back five generations and he is James V.

I’m so grateful to be a part of this family’s journey and to document their milestones. Each year, the photos evolve with the family, from the innocence of a newborn to the laughter of a toddler and beyond. The beauty of this tradition is that it allows me to capture not just moments in time, but the essence of who this family is at each stage, creating memories that will last a lifetime. I look forward to continuing to photograph them in the future and see more of these images framed in their future home. My absolute favorite compliment is printed images around your space.
