Baby Calvin Is Here!

Some of our favorite friends, Bubba and Laura, just had a sweet baby boy and we couldn't be any happier for them! It still doesn't seem possible to me that this part of life is actually happening... I feel like it was just last week that we were all in youth group together, going to summer church camp, and hanging out at each other's houses. It has been so fun for my husband and I to grow up with Bubba, see him find Laura and marry her, and now to celebrate with them for the birth of their first son Calvin. I can't wait to watch this little guy grow up and for him and Brody to play together and become little buddies! :)

Thomas & Stefany Are Having A Baby

I'm so excited to share these awesome photos of my cousin and his beautiful family!! My great subjects combined with the location made for a super fun session and seriously, have you ever seen such a cute mommy-to-be rockin' her baby bump?! Stefany is such a sweet and pretty lady and she looks as if she is glowing with her pregnancy of their second child. They have an adorable little daughter, Daphne, and their son will be here at the end of July. I couldn't be any happier for them as they prepare to welcome their son into their family & I'm thankful to have been able to be a part of this exciting time!

Michelle: My Great Friend & Makeup Artist

I've been anxiously awaiting to launch my official website and to announce the new changes & additions to Erica Hayes Photography. Michelle joining my team as the makeup artist is so exciting because not only is she extremely talented with a makeup brush, but she is a blast to be around. I'm completely confident that she is going to be a huge asset to the team and I know she will add a little sparkle to my photos with the makeup that she does. Contact me through ericalhayes.com to book a session and to get even more beautified by this gorgeous girl!

Another Hamblin Family

One great Hamblin family after the other ;) I've known Jesse and Sarah for many years... I even remember Sarah leading me in children's church one Sunday at church. And now I had the fun opportunity of taking family photos for them! They have two sweet girls, Macy & Sadie, and are now expecting a son! I'm excited for them as their family grows and for all the fun they are going to have welcoming their baby boy. 

The Hamblin Family of 7

I never thought that being an aunt of 4 awesome kids could get any better...until sweet baby Emily was born and made me an aunt of 5!! It's crazy to think about but it is so fun living it out and walking into their house and hearing my name being called out from all different directions :) My nephew has no other choice than to be the sweet, protective, older brother like he is and it's the best to just watch how much he really loves his sisters. I'll always stand by saying that the greatest thing in the world is being a mommy, but the next best thing is getting to be an aunt to these kids! Love them all to pieces!!
