These two were so much fun to photograph!  I just know their wedding is going to be a blast!

I was so thrilled to head over and meet this precious little baby boy.  I photographed his parents wedding HERE and their maternity session HERE.  He was seriously one of the cutest babies I’ve ever seen.

I am participating in a blog circle with some photographer friends of mine and this week’s theme is ‘discovery’.  Since I spent the majority of time at the NICU with my youngest, my subject choice is limited.  So here is little Charlie ‘discovering’ hunger — this was the first day he was ‘ad lib’ feeding, which means instead of getting fed every three hours, on schedule, he is now eating whenever he is hungry.  I am breastfeeding, but sometimes it wears him out and we need to top him off with a little bottle feeding.  This is also the first time Daddy fed him (a bit of re-discovering going on there too).

I’ve announced this on my facebook page already, but in case you missed it, my third baby decided to really throw us for a loop.  After a very scary pregnancy (I was diagnosed with a placenta abruption) that had me in and out of the hospital for weeks at a time, my little guy decided he wasn’t going to put his faith in my failing placenta and was born on February 4th — at 29 weeks.  He weighed just 3lbs, 5oz.

He has done remarkably well, but he will be in the NICU for a while.  It’s already been three weeks and I’m guessing it will be about another three weeks before he can come home.  I have been spending every day up at the hospital, so things at Erin Farrell Photography have been put on the back burner for now.  I will return calls and emails when I can and orders may be delayed in getting out.  I hope everyone understands that my priorities have shifted during this time.

Here are some pictures of my amazing little guy, Charlie.
