Elodie Arrived

Last night was rather memorable for me as I got to photograph the arrival of a new human. Her name is Elodie and she's the daughter of the girl I did the maternity shoot in the woods for last month. Watching a baby come into the world is a magical experience to witness... everyone should get the chance to see it. This was my first photo shoot but second viewing. I was there when my niece was born 15 years ago. It's much better enlarged against black.

Here's here a month ago: http://365project.org/kwind/365/2016-01-09
