You ever have friends that just feel like family? Well, I am SUPER lucky because I have clients that become friends and then they feel like family too! I am absolutely so honored to welcome Mr. Greyson Michael to the world. We photographed his Fresh 48 session at Columbia St. Mary’s in Mequon, Wisconsin and his lifestyle newborn pictures at their home in Port Washington, Wisconsin. I was also blessed to photographed this wonderful family for their pregnancy announcement and maternity session.

Greyson is absolutely perfect! He has the best newborn skin I have ever seen and his skin tone is gorgeous. He already loves snuggling, holding hands with Mom and Dad, and accepting kisses from his fur sister Finley. His nursery is so adorable with gray safari animals and a beautiful potterybarn crib (that has quite the adventure behind it). It even has a dog bed for Finley!

Speaking of Finley, I certainly couldn’t go this whole post without talking about my favorite fur-bestie. She is adjusting so well to the role of big fur-sister, even if she tried to steal the show with her adorable posing more than once (: She offered Greyson kisses at any chance she got and sat to patiently (well mostly) while Jillian and Ryan took turns feeding Greyson. I know her and Greyson will be quite the handful for their parents some day, but they will never look back on this life and say it was too slow or boring – that is for sure.

Jillian and Ryan, thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for including me in all of your moments. It is absolutely my honor to watch your family grow and to see you two as parents. I hope you cherish these moments and these images for years to come.

Greyson, you have the very best parents and I know you will have the very best life with your family.
