Made with love, prayers and a little bit of science - Welcome to the world Dustin

With every photographic exchange, ASP’s community so joyfully expands.
For this, my heart expands. I often ask for feedback after exchanges, receiving of the images, it all, as for me, I know the pure intention, the love, the thought that goes into all that I do.
How it’s received, I don’t always know.
When I receive that feedback, my heart glows as the intention, the thoughtfulness, the love is recurved.

There are some souls, some clients, where the connection, the exchange goes beyond that present moment. It turns into this immensely supportive friendship.
Oh, is this so very beautiful.
For this little man and his family, that, that of becoming an immensely beautiful friendship is most definitely the reality. Over the years I’ve documented Carly and Dave’s wedding, first Christmas, gender reveal and now this, their first son. Each moment, I feel that much more like family, that much more like the universe knew our paths were supposed to cross.

What makes these time capsules so very special was learning the immense dedication, money, anticipation that went into them growing their family.
With chills on my skin, as I type this, they thankfully had such a blessed IVF experience and little man is here, he’s really here. Carly and Dave, you, your love, your adorable little family, for friendship are truly a reminder of my purpose here on earth each and everyday.

That of connection.
That of being in exchange.
That of truly witnessing, understanding, being.
Little man is so blessed to have you as his guiding light.
Thank you for the trust, the honor in getting to safely document your little man,
especially during this time.
