landon is a miracle baby. of course, all babies are miracles, but at 2 days old, he already had quite the story to tell. he was born with a life threatening and extremely rare heart condition and his parents were told he would need multiple heart surgeries (has already had one). this baby is a fighter and he has a war wound to prove it (it is just above the cutest swirly little belly button i have ever seen). what a blessing this shoot was for me to witness two parents that just ADORE every inch of their child. as i would be photographing landon and turn around to talk to them, each and every time, they would be cuddling, holding one another tight, and just gazing at him. it was such a sincere adoration that it really filled me with an indescribable peace. the kind of peace that stays with you for days and makes the world seem a little sweeter.
