Jennifer and Jeremy welcomed James William earthside on at 6:38am on November 4th, 2019. His name holds so much meaning, named after two of his grandfathers who passed away within days of each other earlier this year. Family is so important to Jennifer and Jeremy, that James William was exactly the blessing they needed to honor their loved ones and hold them a little closer to their hearts.
Baby James is the fifth (and final) child to join the Largen crew. All of the Largen siblings were eager to hold and snuggle James during his session. It was easy to photograph each of them holding and snuggling their baby brother. The love and kisses were plentiful.
Though hard to explain our family ties, in a way I consider Jennifer to be my sister. And I feel very blessed to have had her as part of my family for the past 15 years. Just in the past few years, I feel like I’ve gotten to know her better through family vacations and bonding over shared motherhood experiences. During James’s newborn session, I said to her, “You have a full house and a full heart, don’t you?” And it’s not just her kiddos that fill her heart. Every time I have walked into Jennifer and Jeremy’s home, it it filled with more than just their family. Friends that feel like family are always around, soaking up the love and acceptance and, of course, the baby snuggles that are plentiful in the Largen household.
Jennifer, Jeremy, Mia, Jeremy Jr., Jordan, Jocelynn and James . . . I feel blessed to know you, to count you as family, and to be welcomed into your life to document your important milestones. Thank you for always including me, and my family, opening your home and, more importantly, your hearts.
