I was so glad to have the opportunity photograph this little baby yesterday. Her name is Bela, and boy is she a special little girl. She was born with a rare heart condition called HLHS (Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome), and with Turners Syndrome. She has already been through so much at her tender young age of 5 months. Through it all though, she definitely lives up to her name, as she is a strikingly beautiful and special little baby. You can visit her family’s blog at www.tanandave.blogspot.com.


This is something special that Bela’s grandparents give to each grandchild. She’s #50!



I also did some of Bela’s brother, Benson. He’s such a cutie!

Then we took some of the whole family. For some reason, the black and whites from the day were my favorites all around!




Benson wanted to pick out his “sword.”

And one more of sweet little Bela.

Thank you guys for letting me capture these memories for you!
