adoption {fundraising}

happy news! my husband and i are in the beginning stages of the adoption process, and we are excited to see what God has in store for us as a family. i'll admit that it hasn't been an easy journey and it's taken us a little while to get to this point. but we both feel as though we're at a much more hopeful place in our story, with lots of potential for goodness and good gifts on the horizon. in the mean time, we are looking for creative ways to do some fundraising, one of which is to sell my prints on etsy. so feel free to browse, and share with your friends! i've also started a new blog that will chronicle our adoption story, so please feel free to read along. 

with much love,

the patches

newborn {polaroids}



i shot these on a bright, sunshiny day, and i sort of love the effect. 
i still find it a little magical to watch them develop; you  never know what you're going to get.
happy friday!

baby chick. {soulard market}


my friend stacey and i paid a visit to soulard market this past weekend, before doing a little thrifting and coffee drinking/lunching at mississippi mud. i was hoping that the baby chicks would be back, seeing as how it was the weekend before easter. and indeed they were. so cute. 

happy spring!

what better way to spend an unexpected spring snowstorm than a photo shoot with baby c and her mama and papa. i'm smitten. she's tiny, and sweet, and has the most gorgeous head of hair. can't wait to see more of this little one!
