A precious couple, whose wedding I photographed in 2009, are expecting a bundle of joy in a little over a week. Halee and Brandon Whitesides were married in October 2009 at a beautiful historical home in Morganton. I got to know them pretty well by doing their engagement photos, bridals, and the wedding photos. I have stayed in touch with them through facebook, which seems to be the way of communication these days, lol ! When I heard they were expecting a baby boy, I was so happy for them. Soon after they found out they were expecting, they were told baby Cooper had a neural tube defect. Of course, they were initially in shock. Halee has documented their journey and challenges by writing a journal at caringbridge.org. I have eagerly awaited new posts in the journal, and have enjoyed reading about Cooper's progress.
About a month ago, I was blessed to do maternity photos with Halee and Brandon. We took them at the library where Halee works. I will be posting a few of the photos below. Cooper is scheduled to be delivered by c-section next week, March 17, at Presbyterian Hospital in Charlotte. I will be traveling to Charlotte early that morning to take photos soon after the birth. I am so excited to be able to document this special time in their lives, and to finally meet baby Cooper. I am certain he is going to be one spoiled little boy, ha ! Everyone please keep them all in your prayers.
