The past two weeks have been hell. Anyone who has lost a baby knows the pain. And anyone who has lost a baby conceived through fertility treatments knows that it’s a particularly unique kind of pain. Losing a baby isn’t something that people “get over” or “move on” from. So, while I’m healing pretty well physically, our emotional healing is a bit slower. As we continue to heal and eventually move forward with trying for a sibling for our angel baby, we know that our hearts will always miss our girl and what our life would’ve been like with her. We didn’t just lose her; we also lost the plans, dreams, and goals we had for her. We know that so many of you have had us in your hearts since we shared the news with you. To those who have sent gifts: THANK YOU. To those who have messaged or called us: THANK YOU. To those who have thought about us: THANK YOU. To our clients who have been so patient with us: THANK YOU. We see and appreciate all of you. We hope you know that your strength gives us strength. ❤️ 
To my infertility community: protect your heart with this post. As of today, I’m 8 weeks, 1 day pregnant. But, unfortunately, my pregnancy is coming to an end. After a rollercoaster of a pregnancy, with many pieces of good news followed by bad, we found out this week that our baby girl isn’t growing and is lacking vital developmental markers. She can’t survive. I’m going to miscarry. Right now, we’re processing our grief while also trying to decide which route to take with our miscarriage (natural, medicated, or surgery) AND how to move forward with trying again in the future, since this little girl was our only normal embryo. We never thought we’d be here. We never thought we’d be dealing with infertility. We never thought we’d have to go through IVF, let alone more than once. And we certainly never imagined we’d join the devastating baby loss club. This is not a journey we’d wish on anyone. But, one good thing that has come out of it is that we’ve been showered with so much love and support throughout the entire process. We’re so thankful for all of you who have commented, messaged, gifted, donated, or supported us in some way. From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU. And thank you in advance for giving us the space to grieve. We may be quiet as we work through the grief, but please know that we see and appreciate any love shown. ❤️ 
Ok, so I jumped on the Clubhouse bandwagon last week. Admittedly, I had no idea what it even was when @amyannphoto invited me (does that mean I’m getting old?). Buuuuut, after a week of the Clubhouse life, I can confidently say I’M OBSESSED. Who else has joined? What are your favorite clubs? Who do you love following? Tell me everything. 
2020 was certainly a doozy, am I right?! I didn’t even know if I’d have enough photos to do my annual best photos post 🤷♀️ But, here we are, and I’m proud to say that I do actually have some photos that are worthy of being called my best photos of 2020 🤪 Head over to the blog to see which ones made the cut! 
Just have to give a shout-out to Mr. EKP for this amazing shot of Annie and Colin (who just so happen to be two of the coolest people on the planet). It has been so fun watching Antonio learn and improve in his photography over the past few years. I swear, every wedding we do I’m more and more impressed by him. I guess it’s a good thing I like him because I think I’ll keep him around for a while 🤪 Thanks, babe, for being so dedicated to your photography, so amazing to our clients, and the perfect partner for me in life and in business 😘 See more of Annie and Colin’s micro wedding in my Stories and on the blog!
