At Home Newborn

An at home newborn session honoring this sacred slowness of fresh babies. Tiny humans who suddenly put your world into mundane slow motion that is also somehow so fast and filled with newness. Every day is more or less the same and yet totally different. Sleepy hours that move in ways time has never moved before. A time warp. 

You’ll never get this back. It’s the most fleeting thing in the world. Always wanting to rewind but also knowing that the future holds so much goodness, growth, and joy. Is it possible to rewind and fast forward all at once?

This time right here, when they’re still so fresh, still just barely part of the outside world, there’s nothing like it. Divine and overwhelming. A million contradictions at once. Sometimes it feels like your heart is breaking from the way life is so so different now, but at the same time swelling because there’s nothing better the\an that newborn smell, the little noises, this brand new big giant love. Thank goodness it’s so different. Thank goodness they’re here.

And then before you know it it’s gone, changed. Life crashes in and the world spins again, not quite the same as before but not like those first few weeks together either.
