{ S Family Maternity }

I had such a great time with this family yesterday. I have really come to love maternity sessions. There is definitely a certain glow to an expecting mother. One that I can only hope I captured on film. If you couldn't tell already, this first pose is one of my favorites for maternity. I love the angle and the way the eyes are enhanced. :)

Thanks so much to the "S" family for allowing me in your home once again and this time letting me do a little rearranging in your living room. I can't wait to schedule your newborn shoot in just a few weeks! Enjoy your sneak peek!

Beautiful Mom

I love all the directions you can take with photography. I feel as if everytime I do a shoot I walk away learning more and more about poses, lighting, etc. It never gets old and I love every minute of it.

I did a beautiful maternity shoot the other day and I've been waiting to post the pics until after Valentine's Day. The pics were a surprise for her husband, so I've had to wait. I think they turned out so great. These were more of an elegant look and I love the softness of the images.

There have been quite of few maternity shoots lately. I have just recently added a "Baby's First Year" package deal to my repetoire. I have not posted the info to my website yet, but the details are this:

#2 Urban action

#3 Troy action (possible favorite at the moment)

{ "T" Maternity }

What a fun shoot I had today! Some good friends of mine are expecting their first baby. A little girl. Without a doubt they will be fantastic parents. As you can see they are pretty much guarenteed a beautiful baby. Y'all are naturals behind the camera. Thanks "T" and "C" for having me in your home and sharing an afternoon with you. I had a great time! Soooo many great images to pick from. It was really hard to decide which ones to post for the sneak peak. Here are some of my faves!

Mama shoot

So, I had the pleasure to shoot another maternity shoot yesterday. One of my really close friends is expecting her third baby! She is such a beautiful mom! I tried out a few new ideas I had rolling around in my head. How cute is big brother playing cars with his little brother (wink, wink) on mom's belly. That "3" was a doozie to get to say on because little one kept kicking it off! So sweet! I love how some of them turned out. Here are my favorites.

1st Maternity shoot

What fun! I had my very first maternity shoot today. My good friends are expecting their first baby in just a few weeks. She had a really cute idea to paint her belly. I painted it to match her nursery theme and it came out so cute! She was joking that I may have requests to paint more bellies for photo shoots. :) I guess we'll see.
