I am not sure how to put this experience into words. About two years ago, I met Mark and Joanne Agellon. They hired me to shot their engagement photos and there wedding. I was a very nervous being a new photographer and honestly worried about be a little older and not what you would typically get when you think about a creative, urban, out-of-the-box style wedding photographer. Mark and Joanne were amazing people and I had the time of my life doing there engagement shoot. They seemed so pleased with the photos and I was really looking forward to the wedding. A couple of months later I was told that the wedding was off. I was so sad because I thought they were a great couple. Shortly after that, I got a call from Joanne that she wanted to hire me to do her maternity photos. YEAH! I could have been happier. She and Mark were married in Vegas and are moving forward with their lives and their beautiful little boy. On September 16, 2010, at 7:45pm Joanne called me and said "its time." She left me a message because I was out walking with Paul and didn't get the message til I returned at about 8:30. I called her back and she said she was dialated to 4 and the hospital had admitted her. I packed up my bags and headed out to Kaiser in San Jose for my first ever BIRTH PHOTOGRAPHY. Yet again, Mark and Joanne trusted me with a momentus occasion in their lives. Joanne didn't progress very fast and she had terrible back labor. It was a very long night. Mark took a short nap on the floor while I napped in the papa's chair. At two we changed rooms, at 4 they gave her pitocin, at 10am she started to push and at 11:55 the most amazing birth of Christian Ruperto Agellon was born. WOW! Crazy Beautiful. Thanks so much Mark and Joanne for sharing this day with me. I hope you love the pictures as much as I do. Love, Lauri (Studio 22381 Photography)
