gender reveal

Boy or Girl??!! |St. Louis Family Photographer

When my marketing manager, Caitlin, told me she was expecting her first baby I immediately had flash backs to a gender reveal I saw on line about 8 years ago.  I have been waiting to recreate this for so long and they were the perfect couple.  After the ultra sound yesterday, she brought me the sealed envelope with the sex so I could start planning.  And here is how it went down. (HUGE thanks to THE SHACK for helping pull this off.  Besides having amazing food, the staff was incredible to work with.  Thank you Josh and Christine!! ) Oh ya, and today is Caitlin's birthday!!  

IT'S A BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today was a very special day for Sarah and Todd.  They went to the doctor to find out the sex of their first child.  And I got to document it all...  This is their story. Delivering me the secret envelope from their Doctor!  They had a brilliant idea to fill a piñata with pink or blue.

I stuffed the piñata and hung it from a tree (yes, by myself thank you) and waited for them to arrive.

and then it happened!

IT'S A BOY!!!!!!!!!

And so the next chapter continues.  Sarah, Todd and their Baby Boy.  xoxoxo

Not sure who had more fun this morning...me or them.  So this is how it went down.  The doctor wrote down the sex of the baby in a sealed envelope---then Liz, the mom, delivered it to me.  I bought balloons and put them in this cute box she made.  When they opened the box, they found out what they were having....SO MUCH FUN for Henry and what a fun way to find out!!  xoxo
