Layla & Chris - Baby Airlie |HUNTER VALLEY & NEWCASTLE PHOTOGRAPHER
A Journey of Hope | Baby Airlie’s Story 🌸
I first met Layla and Chris back in July for their maternity session, and from the very beginning, I knew there was something truly special about them. We clicked instantly — they were open, kind, and full of excitement as they awaited the arrival of their precious baby girl.
During their session, they shared their story with me — a story of strength, perseverance, and faith through infertility and IVF. Layla has kindly given me permission to share a glimpse into their journey, and I feel incredibly honoured to do so.
Their path to parenthood began almost five years ago. After trying for some time, medical investigations revealed that Layla had blocked fallopian tubes. She underwent surgery in the hope of restoring her fertility, but sadly, it resulted in the loss of both tubes. This meant that IVF would be their only way to conceive — a road filled with both challenges and courage.
After many rounds and countless prayers, the day finally came — they found out they were expecting a baby girl. 💕
Fast forward to August, and little Airlie May made her arrival — perfect in every way, with ten tiny fingers and ten tiny toes. From the moment she came into the studio, she was an absolute dream to photograph — peacefully sleeping through her entire session.
Capturing Airlie’s newborn photos was more than just a session; it was a celebration of love, resilience, and hope fulfilled. I’m so grateful to have been part of this beautiful chapter in their story — one that reminds us that miracles really do happen.
I have since had the honour to photograph the proposal, just a few weeks after the newborn session. I love when clients become family! I cannot wait to watch the next chapter unfold!
