What a treat to photograph Sarah & Matt again, this time with their newborn, baby Cam– how I love being a Mechanicsburg Family Photographer!! I had the pleasure of photographing Sarah and Matt’s engagement (in their Mechanicsburg home), then their wedding (Carlisle), and now had a chance to return and meet their sweet dog, Rhys, and their precious little one, Cam! I love my job– what a privilege to work with such authentic, kind people who believe in me and my photography!
Why Rhinehart Photography?
Sarah shares, “We chose Lisa as our photographer because her photos are AMAZING! She did our engagement photos and our wedding photos and has always done such an excellent job capturing our special moments! The colors in the photos are so vibrant, and her photos are so unique! There was no question we wanted Lisa to do our newborn photos!”
She continues, “Lisa was so patient and always seemed to find the perfect photo! She captured the moments so well!! Not only that, but she was able to advise us on color choices for our outfits so that the photos came together beautifully! Her time and expertise were so appreciated! We can tell that Lisa truly loves what she does!”
Welcome Baby Cam!
Sarah smiles, “We were so excited for Cameron’s arrival! Choosing furniture, paint, wall hangings, and decorating the room was so fun! He has the best grandparents, aunts, and uncles, too, who were so very excited to meet him! They were buying clothes before we even knew the gender!”
They laugh, “When he arrived, he had so many visitors, and he has been in demand ever since!”
Sarah adds, “We made sure to send his hat home before we got home so that Rhys (our golden) and the cats could get used to his scent. When we came home, Rhys was so curious! He took to him right away and always wanted to give him kisses!”
My Approach: Plenty of time, Fussy baby? No problem!
Sarah smiles, “We are so appreciative that you spent so much time with us. Newborn moods are so unpredictable, and the fact that you are patient and worked along with us as we calmed him and fed him was so appreciated! We cannot thank you enough for your patience and for staying! You didn’t make us feel rushed, and you continued to make different suggestions to capture the perfect photo despite any fussiness! You were so great! We always trust your expertise, you pointed us to just the right package for us.”
She continues, “We were glad that you could come to our home to take our photos. We definitely wanted the cozy and relaxed vibe for our photos. We enjoy being at home, which really made the photo session so much more comfortable, especially with a newborn and with Rhys and our cats. We had really been enjoying our moments at home, which was perfect for our newborn/family photos. It was also the initial location of our engagement session!”
Mechanicsburg Family Photographer: A BIG Boy
Matt laughs, “As soon as Cameron was born, he had several people asking when he’d start playing football given his measurements!”
Sarah adds, “I just love his little hands and feet!”
Getting Some Sleep
Sarah shares, “The first couple of weeks it felt like we had no sleep! As we started to get into a routine, he started sleeping more and we were able to split the duties so we both got several hours of sleep in a row.”
She smiles, “I am so fortunate to have a husband who shares in the responsibility and immediately and seamlessly stepped into the role of a new dad. It has been really great to have a partner who helps with the nightly duties so that neither one of us is up all night every night!”
Mechanicsburg Family Photographer: Looking Back
Sarah says, “Cameron has brought out so much love, and his smile is contagious! Rhys has also been the best ‘big brother’ and seems to really love Cameron, too. He has become more inquisitive and often participates in tummy time and playtime, which is precious!”
She smiles, “Becoming parents has been one of the most joyous and rewarding events in our lives! We couldn’t be happier that we have been blessed with a beautiful baby boy! It is crazy to think back on the huge life events we have had as a family and how quickly time has gone by! Between having two cats, getting married, buying a house, getting Rhys, and now having a baby, it has been eventful! We couldn’t be more grateful for the life we have built!”
