Bridgett + Jeff: Expecting!!

01-06-10

This session was extra special since Bridgett and Jeff are my sister and brother-in-law!!! We had such a fantastic time capturing these images of Bridgett’s final days of pregnancy…just a few days later the newest member of the family made her appearance! You will get to meet her soon, but in the meantime, enjoy!

How cute are they together!?!

I hope the baby gets Bridgett’s incredible hair color!

I love this shot of Bridgett trying to get a good look at her belly!

Snuggling!

I love the summery look of these even though it was late December! Ahhh, the wonders of cheesecloth!!

Meghan + Justin: Expecting!

12-16-09

When Meghan and I first met to discuss doing her maternity photos, I was immediately struck by her openness and enthusiasm and her desire to do something just a little different…I just knew the session was going to be awesome! I was so spot on…it was AWESOME!

Talk about a good sport…it was about 35 degrees outside when we finally met for the session (we had to wait for the baby bump to grow!) and Meghan didn’t flinch for a second. She climbed through prickly bushes, bared the belly in the cold, and was laughing and joking the whole time! Her husband, Justin, was so protective and adoring…have I mentioned how much I LOVE that my job throws me together with amazing people who are totally in love and make my heart melt? I had SUCH a fantastic time with these guys…thank you SO SO much, Meghan and Justin!!

Check out their slideshow here!

Need I say it again? She’s stunning!

Baby H already has his first set of sneaks!

Gotta show the bling!

Ahhh…l’amour!

Can’t wait to meet the little man! Thanks again, you guys!!

Sneak Preview: Maternity Photos!

12-14-09

I can’t even begin to have words adequate to the task of conveying HOW MUCH FUN I had at this session! It’s not everyday that a photographer finds people willing to play around outside for hours when the temperature is hovering around 30 degrees, much less soon-to-be Moms willing to bare their beautiful bellies! But as I’ve said a million times…I have the best clients EVER, so perhaps I shouldn’t have been at all surprised to find Meghan and Justin full of adventurous spirit and willing to try anything!

I can’t wait to show you the rest, but for now, here’s a little appetizer!!! 🙂

Nicollette + Shawn: Maternity

08-03-09

I love morning light. There is just something magical to me about the way the dew sparkles and there is always a slight mist in the air as the sleepiness of the night is burned away by the rising sun. So you can imagine how thrilled I was when Nicollette and Shawn agreed to meet with me for their maternity photography at six o’clock AM on a Saturday morning!! We had such an amazing session…the love between Nicollette and Shawn outshines even the dew in the morning light! I was so moved by the way they interacted, Shawn protective and enfolding, Nicollette devoted and reassuring. Their dynamic was just beautiful to witness and to photograph and I feel so privileged to be a part of their adventure!

I played a little bit with some textures for these two images…I love the effect!

This one might be my favorite from the session…I just LOVE Shawn’s expression!

Thanks again, Nicollette & Shawn! I had SOOO much fun and can’t wait to do Nylah’s newborn photography!
