"Suddenly you just know:   It's time to start something new & trust the magic of new beginnings."

-Meister Eckhart

 And just like that they added mom and dad to their roles in life.  And this adorable pup has a brother.  They recently welcomed a new addition to their happy home.  And forever their life will be changed.  It is so fun to meet new families who are welcoming their first.  I am always amazed at how calm and relaxed and pulled together they are.  I do not remember our beginning of parenthood like that.  I am sure it doesn't feel calm and pulled together to them.  But, as their photographer of this new chapter, I can honestly say they are embracing the new magic that this little Leo is bringing to their lives.  Here are some of my many favorites!  

Weekend afternoon naps will be a tad different from here on out. 

THE CHEEKS!

Pup was always around! 

Baby stretches. Melt my heart.

I love newborn pictures in black and white.  I think they calm everything and make them timeless and really allow baby to be the focus.  

Enjoy it all Melissa and Brian!  You are on an adventure of a lifetime.
