The joy of becoming parents

Ahhhh...the joy of becoming parents..

If you have children, you will know that there is nothing else in the world that can fill your heart like the way your first child can.

Remember that excitement, that oh-the-wait-is-finally-over, the at-last-I-get-to-meet-him/her feeling? That jittery sensation, that readiness to be in charge??

Well, two of my good friends finally became parents, for the first time, a few days ago. They finally get to meet their first child--Lola.

This is Lola. The cutest, most adorable, carefree puppy I have ever met.

She has the face to kill..



the heart of a child.


She is independent, she minds her own business..



She is every parent's dream.

Having only photographed people, this "shoot" was definitely something different, something interesting, something...fun. I was completely distracted by such cuteness, thank goodness my lens did its job. She [Lola] is so photogenic, it's not even funny.









Congratulations, you two! There will be some sleepless nights, many cleaning sessions, a few disciplining episodes. But there will also be tons of memory-building, dream-weaving moments. Enjoy every minute of her being a baby. She will grow up so fast. The next thing you know, she'll be ready to take on the world, and she'll act like she doesn't need you any longer (so I've heard, English Bulldogs are extremely stubborn). Too bad you won't ever be able to kick her out.

Ahhh...the joy of becoming parents.
