Default I used to think...

That photography was the best hobby ever...
And that getting the perfect shot made the best day out of the year...
Or even that receiving a new lens was better then any present you could get...

Then I got a daughter... Goodness.

2 months early, but healthy and strong, as is the mom.

Now I find that little snapshots are all I need in life...

My Daughter

Very good Kodiak, Congrats to you...now you have one of the most precious gifts....just make sure you get the snaps now to remind you later when she's being a little diva how she once was...lol!
Think about all the years of modeling for free......truly a blessing!

Congratulations on the new baby girl. As the years roll by, you'll find that snapshots of your children just being themselves are the ones you'll remember and the ones you'll cherish.

Thanks all. I already promised her I would not over-photograph her as long as she gets out of the intensive care unit sooner rather than later

Awww, congratulations, Kodiak! I am so happy for you and your family. You sure sound like you have fallen head over heels in love with your beautiful little girl. Glad to hear she and Mom are doing well. Please keep us updated on how your sweetie grows!

So....what's her name?

((HUGS))
