for john + ingrid, the journey towards parenthood has not been an easy one. they have experienced much tragedy along the way, so it was with both great celebration and tender remembrance that we approached this session. sweet baby jack will be here soon, and the joy this lovely couple has for their son was contagious. i found myself overwhelmed with emotion throughout our time together. ingrid... you truly glow with the joy of this pregnancy. the love you
