Thank you universe and Google for bringing my sweet friend Claire into my life, when she was searching for a maternity photographer while pregnant with Finley, four years ago.  I’ve watched this beautiful mother-daughter relationship develop between the two of them and was over the moon to photograph them at a time that we thought would be about four weeks before baby brother arrived.  But he came only a few days later, making these moments captured even sweeter.

Baby Dawes was prayed for so so much. For weeks, months, and years. And so to see my friend just radiant with anticipation and love from within, well, it was just the most heartwarming thing to witness.

So happy for you, Watson family!
