Doula Family Shoot.










I had some good laughs while editing this set; I wish I could have posted every sequence of photos with all the changing expressions and movements but alas, that would have made up 300+ photos:). Quentin and Lisa were great at getting Evan and Evie to interact with my camera. Running around after Evan the Tiger and capturing those sweet blue eyes of Evie (and that smile!) made for a fun shoot despite the summer humidity and an 8 month prego bulge.

Lisa is our amazing friend, doula, and hypnobirthing instructor. Anyone considering having a baby in Korea? Check out her incredible work at birthinginkorea.com. She is one reason why we decided to stay in Korea to have the baby rather than launching into the unknown birthing experiences of Nepal (which I'm sure would have been fine too and we'll probably be a part of for baby # 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7....unless John puts a cap on #3, or unless baby #1 is about all I think I can handle!). She is full of resources for the mama and daddy who want to bring in their baby through natural (drug-free) gentle birth. After doing some research on our end, we knew we wanted to bring our baby into the world with as little intervention as possible. We're so thankful to have Lisa as a doula and to have learned some valuable tools through her hypnobirthing class. We're thrilled and waiting eagerly for a memorable birthing experience! Less than one month to go!
