As a newborn and maternity photographer in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, I have been honored to join in celebrating life for countless growing families through photography. For some families, their new baby is a welcomed surprise, while others need a little help and perseverance. Unfortunately, an estimated 1 in 8 couples struggles with infertility in the United States. I've been an ally and confidant for more than ten years, listening as couples share their surrogacy, IUI and IVF stories. Thankfully, 90% of infertility cases can be resolved with science. But then, there are those miracle cases where God steps in with a different plan. This is the story of Waylon, complete with newborn photos.

In 2009, Shane and Michelle began their fertility journey of trying to conceive a child and build their dream family. They had some initial trouble and were still unable to get pregnant after the first few months of trying. The couple “researched” what they could on the internet to help increase their odds – but they were still unsuccessful.
You've excitedly waited for nine months to hold your little one in your arms. Now that they're here, you feel like you could watch them all day. If you're anything like me, you just stare at them while they sleep, trying to memorize every detail.
