It’s the year for magnolia babes & mamas! Earlier this summer, my very first magnolia bride & groom (oh my goodness!) told me they were pregnant and I couldn’t be happier for the two of them! Becca & Ryan were expecting their first little guy, Carson Hayes (the sweetest name!) and I couldn’t wait to meet him! We waited until the three of them were at home and settled to do their first family portrait session!

Becca & Ryan have a cozy home nestled in the trees. It was the most darling home. I love Becca’s style & how homey she had made her home. There is a lot of love in those walls! There was a perfect sun room where the light was just pouring in like crazy! I was ready to move in!

Ryan & Becca were naturals at parenting. The love they had for their little boy just radiated out every part of them. The twinkle in their eyes for him was the most beautiful part though. And I totally fell in love with Carson’s hair. Oh my gosh – that hair! I wanted to snuggle him and take him home with me! Made me start to have a little baby fever. Uh-oh! 😉 Here’s a look at some of my favorite portraits from Carson’s newborn session!
