A few months ago, I came across this quote on a photographer’s blog.

“When a child’s childhood was their own and not for public display.” ~Jessica Peterson

In few and simple words, she eloquently penned how I feel about photographing children and then sharing.  There is great purpose in photographing a newborn: in a fresh and fleeting season, what can be more valuable than capturing those moments?  Even still, the innocence and beauty in a newborn’s childhood is his or her’s.  Not mine.  If I can capture those moments, while keeping confidentiality and closeness for the family, then I will.

Consequently, my newborn posts will be generally shorter and they will never include the babe’s full name.  If your philosophy is different, I respect you.
