J + J are expecting their first child, a son, next month. They came out to my home studio yesterday for a fun afternoon session. I am so glad it warmed up and finally stopped raining, so that we were able to get some shots outside. (Early evening is such a fun time to shoot.)

Make a wish!

Thank you for coming over, G. family. Looking forward to your newborn session!

Amy and Nick are expecting their first child next month. Well, their first human child, anyway. They’re already the proud parents of a 4-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.

The beautiful expectant mama …

It was wonderful to meet you, and I look forward to meeting your little one in October!

Angie & Phil are expecting their first baby next month. I met up with them at their home to capture this special time, as they wait on baby’s arrival.

They are Seed to Sprout clients, which means I’ll be meeting up with them once their little one comes, and again at 6 and 12 months. I’m so excited to be able to capture baby’s first year.

The happy expectant parents:

Beautiful mama to be!

Thank you for a fun session, A & P! I look forward to meeting your little one!

Jessica and her husband A. are expecting their first child in July. Beautiful Jessica came to my home studio today for a maternity session at 34 weeks.

A shot of baby’s first picture:

Not a traditional maternity portrait, but when you’re this gorgeous, does it matter?

When I saw this picture on my initial review, I loved it immediately…

But this is my new favorite. The light, the softness, the look of joyful expectation on her face. . . Beautiful.

Thank you for coming out to see me Jess, and I can’t wait to meet your little one in July!
