Hello, we are Zaid and Angelica! Thank you for taking the time to get to know us. We also hope to get to know you!

We first met when Angelica was the photographer at a wedding Zaid attended. Watching her move across the room Zaid thought, “there goes the most beautiful girl”. She was working so hard to take the best pictures while making everyone laugh – Zaid was hooked. Years later, in 2019, Angelica needed to...

I fell in love with photography in highschool, and in college received my Bachelor's degree in Photography. I love taking portraits of people, and eventually realized one of my favorite things to capture was newborns! I had a special touch with them and many of my clients called me The Baby Whisperer. I loved my job so much, as it was very rewarding, but I have closed it to prepare for having a family. I continue to utilize my skills by photographing our niece and nephews, but I can’t wait to photograph a child who calls me “Mommy”!...

I wasn't born in America, so some things didn’t come easy, but with God's help, I have had such a good life! I was born in Iraq and lived in Greece for a few years, before immigrating to America when I was seven-years-old. Growing up, I played a lot of sports, from basketball, wrestling, and baseball, to track, but my favorite was football. My love of the game led to coaching football right out of high school, and I have been coaching ever since!

From Angelica About Zaid

We have lived in our home since 2021, and have made a couple of upgrades, but for the most part it is a traditional colonial-style house. We can be homebodies at times, because our house has brought us so much peace, and a great space to spend time together. We love hosting on holidays, and our house is perfect for serving our extended families.

We live in a sweet neighborhood, where there is a good mix of young children and elderly couples. Our cousins just moved in across...

Ultimately, our favorite thing to do is spend as much time as possible with family. We have a large and loving family and we enjoy hanging out multiple days each week. We all love each other so much, and we all make an effort to show up and support one another, like for Zaid’s football games, when the whole family attends, as it's an opportunity to be together.

Our extended families are filled with many aunts, uncles, and cousins, and our family is growing as our cousins are having kids, and we couldn't be...

Since we love spending time with our extended families, we happily host our families for the holidays, especially on Christmas Eve. We love to decorate for every holiday and make our home feel magical, and one day we would love to see that through a child's eyes!

We love to travel, and there are a few places around the world where we have dreamed of taking a child. We are a very active family, and enjoy working out and incorporating fitness into our everyday lives by going on daily walks, where we also love the...

Thank you for getting to know us. We cannot imagine how hard this path must be, but we want you to know that we have been praying that you and the baby feel safe and loved.

It's our dream to become parents and share all the love we have to give with a baby. We think often about sharing our lives with a child, teaching them about God, and showing them how much He loves us. We want them to feel confident in themselves and in who they...
