December 12, 2011 // love list / portraits
This is a special family. I first met them when we had their maternity session for their first child. It was different session then planned, instead of being in Comox we created the session in Vancouver, near the Women's and Children's hospital, where they had to be due to complications with their pregnancy.  They welcomed me into their lives to document their story to share at the YANA 2011 Fundraiser - their heart, resilience and honesty moved me.  Their first son Kai and is now a thriving funny little boy, however, the family had to go through quiet the ordeal, emotions and roller-coaster - to say the least.  

So little Finley's smooth and easy entry into their family was such a blessing, as was photographing him. This little man, looks identical to his brave older brother, which just warmed my heart. 

Finley, your family is so strong and so full of love and grace. You are a blessed little man.
