There is always a bit of time urgency when it comes to maternity sessions.  The window of time between a belly that is big enough to photograph and the time when baby could make their arrival at any time is pretty small!  Beth’s original session was rescheduled due to weather, so we were both relieved when the weather held out long enough for a second try at pictures!  Tommy and Beth are such a sweet couple, I’m just thrilled that the opportunity to capture some memories for them worked out!

Little baby Jacob could literally come any day now.  I love the name, and dad and mom said it was an easy choice!

It was pretty foggy outside the morning of the session, but the fog actually allowed for some really lovely lighting.  I love these images!
Beth is such a beautiful mommy-to-be!

Tommy and Beth – thank you so much for allowing me the opportunity to get to be a part of your excitement!  It was such a pleasure to meet you both, and I can’t wait to hear that little Jacob has arrived.  He’s one lucky little guy to have such awesome parents!

Betsy is the niece of one of my most favoritest people in the world, so when her Aunt Lauri asked me to do maternity pictures while Betsy was in town I jumped at the chance!  Betsy and her hubby are expecting their first baby, a sweet little girl, this July.  She is one GORGEOUS (and itty bitty petite!) momma!

I just love baby bumps!  While taking this picture we were talking about how amazing it is that there’s actually a little person inside of there.

I LOVE these pictures.  I mentioned the night before the session that I wanted to take this particular chair outdoors for the session.  I’m not sure Lauri thought I was serious about it – but I was!  And I’m so glad she obliged because these pictures are some of my favorite maternity pictures ever!

And, of course, we wanted to get daddy in some of the pictures as well.  He’s as equally excited as mommy to meet his new little princes.  No doubt he’ll be wrapped around her pint-sized finger in no time at all.

Thank you so much for letting me be a part of capturing this special time in your life!

Remember the sweet little munchkins from this post?  Well I’ve been waiting a couple weeks to share the REAL reason for our photo session.  Amanda asked me to come take some special pictures of their family to help share a special surprise with those closest to them – and now that the word is out, I can share too!

Congratulations, Matt, Amanda and family, on the new little fishy that you’ll be adding to your school!  I can’t wait to meet the new little one when he/she arrives!

Amanda made this storyboard into a card to present to family as an announcement of the upcoming family addition.  I can’t wait to see the finished product (card AND baby)!

Ellis and Rocco had a blast splashing in the fish bowl.  Seriously. Most. Adorable. Thing. Ever!

No posed portrait session can EVER substitute for the emotion captured in REAL moments.  I absolutely love this picture of my sweet friend sharing in her children’s excitement!

Thank you so much for letting me have a part in sharing this wonderful news!  It was so much fun!

I could not have been more thrilled to have been contacted by Jenna.  Even without meeting face to face, we instantly hit it off and started planning out her maternity session.  She knew exactly what she wanted and was so excited and fun to work with that it was no surprise at all to discover that she was as equally radiant in beauty and personality when we met in person.  But I’ll just let the pictures do the talking…

Jenna and Pete are going to be first time parents to a sweet little boy in just a few months.  He’s about to find out how lucky he is to have them as parents!


Whoever coined the term about the pregnancy glow obviously intended it for Jenna!  And those eyes – WOW!

Pete and Jenna – thank you SO MUCH for inviting me to come capture this amazing time in your lives.  I can’t wait to meet your little man!

…is worth waiting for.  And that’s just what Josh, Sherry and Laney are doing – waiting patiently for the arrival of little Tierney who is set to make her grand entrance in just a few short weeks.

I’ve had the pleasure of photographing Josh and Sherry’s family for a while.  In fact, I’ve had the pleasure of photographing their engagement pictures, their wedding and last years Christmas pictures.  They are always a ton of fun and up for anything.  They put up with me pretty well!

The whole family came along for the session.  I love it when dads and kiddos get in on the action!  Laney is such a goof.  I’m pretty sure her words right before this were, “Eww, I don’t want to see them kissing!”

It’s a good thing Josh and Sherry trust me.  I’m sure they were questioning why in the world I would want to take a picture of their backsides.  You just can’t beat a pregnant profile.  I think they’re beautiful!

Laney is so excited to be a big sister, and I’m sure she’s going to be a great help to her mommy!  Doesn’t she have beautiful eyes?

She gets them from her mommy.

Thank you so much for inviting me out once again to take a part in such a special time for your family!
