Announcing Caleb Roy Schoeggl!

Today is the day that our first child was due to be born. So you can imagine our surprise when, on a sunny Sunday 16 days ago, Caleb decided to make his grand entrance! We're thankful he didn't come a day earlier, when Scott was shooting a wedding in Seattle!

Caleb was born on May 3 at 8:00 p.m. on the dot, weighing 7 lbs 4 oz and measuring 19.5 inches long. The whole process went quite well — Laura did the whole thing without any meds or interventions! — and now we have a happy little boy. The photo above was taken when he was four days old, while we shot the rest on his two-week milestone.

What does this mean for Wallflower? Well, don't expect any big changes! We've got babysitters all lined up and will continue to photograph together at every wedding throughout the year. While we settle in to family life, we may not be quite as quick as usual in responding to phone calls and emails, but we are still "on duty" and in the office. Our devotion to quality remains the same, so our summer clients may have to wait just a smidge longer for their photos. We're sending out our sincere thanks in advance for your patience!

Regular followers of our blog have surely noticed that we've been slacking lately. We've actually been working hard taking great photos, and we plan to catch our blog up with our recent shoots and news over the next few weeks. Stay tuned!

Scott and Laura! Congrats! Welcome to parenthood. No doubt little Caleb will be one of the most photographed babies around. Can't wait to meet the little guy.
