Maternity
Hyatt. SURPRISE! [Apex]
This is a moment we’ve been praying for for YEARS. I can’t contain my excitement for our precious friends and am so thankful the Lord has blessed them so immensely. I even came out of maternity leave to snap these at 39 weeks pregnant ;). Your entire family is glowing, Lauren, and we love you guys! Hyatt party of 5 coming in January!!
Grissinger. Maternity.
The morning was beautiful, the smiles contagious, the mama glowing, and the dress divine! I had so much fun with this sweet family capturing this special time of anticipation. You each have hearts of gold, and we can’t wait to meet your miracle baby girl!
Kristen + Shawn. Maternity.
Being able to take pictures of this MIRACLE baby boy and his amazing parents was the biggest pleasure. We have been praying for you for so very long, and you are so very loved!! Shawn and Kristen are two of the sweetest people I know with the biggest hearts that love Jesus and share that love with others. They also happen to own my very favorite gluten free/vegan treat spot (and coffee!) Fount - if you haven’t checked it out, you’re missing out! Shawn & Kristen - thank you for allowing me to capture this special time - we can’t wait to meet him!
Dixon. Family + Maternity.
You know how people always say to the first child, “you’re going to be such a great big brother/sister!”? Well, it couldn’t be more true of this sweet boy. I have been blessed with such amazing friends. Trina is one of the kindest, joyful, genuine women I know, and it shines through her son Jackson as well. Baby brother is going to be so loved!
Boone. Maternity.
Perfect late afternoon light, a heart-stealing little boy, and a stunning expecting mama in a purple gown. Day made! It is such a compliment when a photographer chooses you to
Grow Baby Grow!
While I was pregnant with Taylor Grace, I had a fun time taking a picture with the “baby is the size of a ___” fruit or vegetable each week. I looked cute every time I went to the grocery store so I could hunt for the perfect produce and get a nice picture. This go round, 1) I don’t care to look cute most days (SAHM of toddler, no makeup or desire, you know the drill) and 2) I thought it would be fun to involve Taylor Grace to get her excited and learn about baby growing.
I have to say, it has been more fun than I expected! Seeing her excitement, watching her grow as our sweet baby grows, and hearing her pronounce (and want to eat) everything has been a blast. Was there some fruit throwing? Sure. But there sure were a LOT of giggles!
Grow baby grow! We’re so close and can’t wait to meet you soon!
It also became a tradition that Taylor Grace had to take a picture of Mama first. I mean, photographer’s dream?!
Here are a few favorites…because, I know I’m biased, but…she CUTE.
Pretty excited we made it to 39 weeks to get a cute pumpkin picture…perfect for our October baby :)
Miller Family
Y'all. Time with the Millers is always a good time. Seriously, they always crack me up! Danielle has been one of my very best friends since sophomore year of college. We always joke that she introduced me to my husband (fun story for another day), so I introduced her to a new career at ROI (yep, the one I just retired from, but hey, we had 5 fun years there together!).
It was such an honor to be able to take pictures for this wonderful family while everyone could be together in one place, while also celebrating the upcoming arrival of baby J!
Also, can we talk about how gorgeous she is? Just saying...
