Hendrik | Newborn Photos | Spokane

Krista and I met years and year ago when she was a freshman in high school. Let's not talk about how long ago that was, but yes, many moons. It has been such an incredible journey to see her grow into the mom she is today. There's always been something sweet and special about her. Seems quiet at first but warms up with some wicked humor and a great laugh. She's proven to be resilient and has a positive outlook. She's now surrounded by her main men—Jared, Lincoln and now Hendrik. I can't wait to continue to see this family grow—in number, in love, in happiness.

Hendrik, you are one big cute squishy little boy! I just can't get enough.

The perfect Christmas week location! Krista and I went to high school together and just happened to reconnect via Instagram to set up this pre-Christmas shoot. I just love this family! Lincoln's big eyes just kill me - I could photograph him all day, such a cutie! My favorite is how much he loved smelling the flowers and trees. Which, really, sends a pretty good message for this time of year. :) Enjoy your week and have a very Merry Christmas everyone!!
