Oh baby, I adore this couple – wait, no, this family of three. Something like 5 years ago I photographed Abby & Dillon’s gorgeous PAC wedding in Milwaukee and while I remember noting that Abby could be Sarah Jessica Parker’s doppelganger at the time, seeing here at home 5 years later was a stunner. Abby is even more beautiful now then she was then – all boho dressed and barefoot, wrapped in Dillon’s arms and cuddling her new babe. Together Dillon and Abby are figuring new parenthood out and baby Theodore is not giving them much of a fight (for now) as he was born some three weeks early. In fact today is his due date and he’s already 3 weeks old! With summer sun streaming in their Madison home’s windows, I padded around their lovingly decorated nursery and noticed the sweet details they had so carefully included in their new reality. A cross stitch alphabet by Abby’s mom made decades ago on one wall and Dillon’s childhood stuffy on the chair, soft blankets and books to read – all of it just so cozy and welcoming for baby. And while Theodore’s fur brother isn’t so sure about him yet, we were able to get the whole family together for perhaps the simplest and most lovely portraits I’ve ever made. Happy Due Date Day Theodore; we are all so happy you are here.
