Waiting on you little one —

There are clothes on hangers now. There’s a mirror hung an artwork displayed.  Your siblings are counting down the days and we all can’t wait to meet you.

There’s something strange about knowing this is the last nursery I’ll get to pull together.  This is the space where you will occupy the beginning of your life here with us.

We’re no strangers to loss and we know that you are a gift that is not promised, and knowing that makes you feel all the more special.

I can’t wait to see who you are, if you resemble your siblings, if you take after their cheekiness or if you have a softness all your own.  The anticipation of you coming.. gosh there’s nothing like it.

Sweet Nora Mae, I just can’t wait to meet you.

We have a year packed with adventure, but I know that you will be the sweetest one.

 


A vintage nursery, just for you Nora Mae.

One of my favorite creative outlets outside of work is getting to make pretty little spaces in our home.  We actually have a rather large renovation project going on this summer (yes, we are crazy), so Nora’s nursery is temporary but still needed something cute.

Like my photo work, I love lots of little layers, clean lines, and vintage.  You’ll see a bit of all in her space.

Because it’s temporary, we pulled this together mostly from the things we already had.  Of course, I did add in a few extras, too – I’ll link below.

Grateful that the countdown is officially on, and it’s baby month! Yay!!

Wife, mama, wielder of light & joy, and capturer of moments.  I thrive off of conversation and genuine connection.  In between wrangling our kiddos, and hanging my husband, you'll find me dreaming up my next idea or creative endeavour.  It's these things that culminate to give my imagery a warmth and joy to them - the greatest compliment I could receive.

I was pretty nervous about being photographed and Lauren made everything fun and flexible. Honestly, I can't imagine the day without her and her team. They were wonderful and hearing from Lauren was always a genuine delight.
