There are a lot of things that get me excited... homemade ice cream, a new episode of So You Think You Can Dance, and of course getting out of school for the summer. But nothing can compare to the excitement of knowing my younger sister has just had her first baby! I got to meet and hold baby Geri for the first time this weekend and see how awesome Allie and Matt are as parents. I am so proud of them and it is so cool to see them taking care of her. I brought them some homemade focaccia and chocolate chip cookies for lunch before we had our newborn photo shoot in their living room. The space was tight, but we had just enough room for my backdrops, lighting equipment, and props.
Matt is a musician with
Piper Street Sound so we wanted to add some instruments into the photo shoot because music is going to be a big part of Geri's life from now on!
