“It’s such an honor to be invited into both a family’s home and life as they begin continue their journey together as parents. Motherhood, particularly during pregnancy and with a newborn, has such an unmistakable joy woven in and throughout that it’s truly a thrill to photograph and celebrate alongside the parents. When I get to photograph good friends, as in this case, the experience is just that much better! MiKel & Brendon are an incredible couple I’m privileged to call friends. MiKel is an amazing hair/makeup artist based in Columbia, SC that I met a few years back through the wedding industry. When she told me she was pregnant, I couldn’t have been more excited for them to begin their journey of parenthood. I was able to photograph them as a couple just before announcing their pregnancy and then again for this family session just after Elliott Poppy was born.” Chris, Photographer
