By now you know we basically consider Sarah (Joel's Physical Therapist) and Matt apart of our family. When they welcomed little Jayce into the world, we waited and waited with them. I knew Sarah and Matt were excited to become parents for the past few years, as we talked about becoming parents too!
It had been a long time since I did a newborn session and it is the first one on the farm. So it was extra special and sweet to share this time with them and capturing him at 7 days old.
Without further ado, here's little Jayce.
