Her name is Ella.
The door to the studio opened one day unannounced and a man introduced himself as "Vincent" Looking around, he proudly said his wife was pregnant and was due in a few months. He was interested in my work. We talked for a bit and he left with card in hand. Four months later the phone rings and Vincent and Jamie are as happy as could be. Baby "Ella" had arrived a few days ago and when could I come out to the house?
The bottles were lined up on the kitchen sink, the house was a peaceful quiet. Fresh pink laundry was folded near the couch. For the second time, I met Vincent. This time his smile was bigger than the sun. Explaining that his wife was feeding the baby, I couldn't wait to meet the new addition.
Welcome to the world baby Ella. Nine days old and you are clearly the light of Vincent and Jamie's eyes.
Thank you Jamie and Vincent for allowing me to photograph your loved one.
