Nicolette & Paul {maternity} 33

Sometimes getting to shoot a past client again feels like seeing an old friend. I know that sounds sappy, but it really does. Two years ago, I did Paul and Nicolette’s engagement photos. And from the beginning of that shoot, there was something about them. We connected in the first 10 minutes. Maybe it was the unexpected fun snowfall or maybe it was their stellar personalities. So you can imagine how I squealed with delight when they contacted me about doing their maternity photos. And the shoot didn’t disappoint. This couple is as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside. And Nicolette’s gorgeousness in her third trimester would tempt any woman to jealousy!

B Family {love} 8

I had the joy of photographing this family of three just a few weeks before they are due to transition to four. Their two year old son was a bit hesitant about the whole “photography” thing until we came across a big door. Yes, a door. It was a first for me. This little guy was in love with doors, and brighten right up as soon as he could play with one. In fact, we could hardly pry him away. I see engineering in this little guy’s future…

B Family 1

I have been looking forward to this photo shoot for awhile. Janelle is a talented photographer friend whose work I love. And for the second year in a row, she has swapped family photos with me. Both of us wanted a chance to come out from behind the camera so that we have some sort of photographic proof that we actually existed during our kid’s childhood!
Janelle and Mike have two adorable little girls and son due in November. And, let me tell you, this family knows how to have a good time! From songs to popcorn to laughter, this session was more fun than work. Being 8 months pregnant didn’t stop Janelle from running around and even giving a piggyback ride.
