Maternity Leave

September 27, 2009

I just wanted to give all of my current clients and those interested in booking me for a session in the future a little heads up.  We are very excited to welcome our second child into the world this October and this time it’s a surprise!  I plan on being out on maternity leave from October-December 2009.  I know this is the prime time to have your holiday portraits done and I do have a few evening weekday openings left in August and September at Rutger’s Gardens in New Brunswick or The Butterfly Park in East Brunswick.  It’s not too early to start thinking about those holiday cards!  If you’re interested in setting something up feel free to email me at info@hollyleblancphotography.com .  I may be taking on a limited number of newborn sessions starting in December so please contact me if you will be expecting during that time.

Here’s an image my husband helped me take of my daughter and I (and the new baby!).

I was so excited to hear the news that my friend had her beautiful baby girl last week.  We were all waiting in anticipation as mom was in labor for over 34 hours!!!  You might remember seeing this couple’s maternity session http://www.hollyleblancphotography.com/blog/?p=218 .  Baby “T” was such a perfect little model for me and slept the entire time!  I wasn’t even able to get any awake images of her, but I’ll be seeing her mom again and we’ll try at another time : )  Congratulations on your daughter and I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!  She is truly precious.  Enjoy every minute of her : )

This little guy came into the world at 36 weeks gestation and had a tough first few weeks in the NICU.  He is home now and putting on weight like a champ!  These images were taken on his actual due date.  He was such a dream to photograph and slept for me for over 2 hours straight!  It always helps when they keep mom and dad up all night : )  I am in LOVE with his bright red hair!  Congrats on your new baby boy and enjoy your sneak peek.

I met up with the “D” family a couple nights ago to capture some moments of them having fun as a family.  They have 3 adorable children.  The oldest son is 5 1/2, their daughter is almost 4, and their youngest son is almost 18 months.  You could really tell how much they loved each other and the children had a great time exploring the gardens and running around in the fields.  It was so nice to meet you and I hope you enjoy your sneak peek : )
