The Tiniest Treasure - Baby Isla

We were blessed to have the opportunity to photograph the sweetest, tiniest little treasure -- Isla Sumner Christoph! It's always such a joy to watch a story unfold from the earliest chapters. You may remember, we photographed Josh and Sarah's wedding in May 2011 in the Bahamas. Over the years, they have become incredibly dear friends to us and sharing in the celebration of their newborn daughter, a little over a year later, is an indescribable emotion.

Josh's Mom, Barbara was incredibly welcoming (as she always is!) in allowing us to shoot in her home. We were able to incorporate family mementos into some of the shots with Isla -- you'll see books about Man-O-War Cay on the shelf - this is where Josh and Sarah were married; the sash from Sarah's wedding dress; a tiny ring that once belonged to Josh's Mom; French books, letters, and a champagne crate -- highlighting Josh's French heritage; and a birdcage that belonged to Isla's Great-Grandmother.

This little itty bitty one didn't want to miss a moment of the photoshoot and made sure to stay awake through 90% of it. *smile* Once she fell into a milk coma, we were able to get some amazing pictures.

Josh and Sarah, we are happy to know you and delighted to call you friends. You have made the most amazing parents and we can't wait to watch Isla grow up.
