I love all my clients, I really truly have the pleasure of working with so many great people. But I have to admit that I love even more when my brides and grooms become my baby clients. It’s like taking all the steps with them and I am so honored to be able to capture all the very best moments in their lives. Autumm and Jason were married last year and shortly after the wedding I received the news that they were expecting. I am so happy for these two and can’t wait to see their little boy who is scheduled to arrive in March.

Enjoy the sneak peek! =)

I met Jenni about five years ago when we worked in the same Leasing Office. Jenni is the kind of girl you meet and you just immediately love, she is so sweet and kind and smart, and as you can see she’s beautiful. I don’t remember if we became friends right away but it wasn’t too long after we worked together that we became great friends. The funny thing was that I found out I was pregnant with Gavin just weeks before Jenni found out she was pregnant with her first child, Vanden. Our friend Mary who also worked in our office was pregnant with her first baby as well. The three of us became great friends and went through our first pregnancies together. Two years later Mary and I had our second babies, Mary had two girls and I had two boys. This baby is Jenni’s second, and she’s as smart to have waited a while longer as she is lucky because she is pregnant with a baby girl (her first baby was a boy). I couldn’t be more happier for Jenni, I literally screamed our loud when I found out she was pregnant and then screamed again when I found out it was a girl. I couldn’t wait to take her maternity pictures and now I can’t wait to take little miss Peyton’s newborn pictures, so stay tuned because she is due the first week of November.

Jenni, I hope you love these pictures as much as I do!

It’s so much fun doing maternity sessions when there is an old sister or brother, especially when the older sibling is a toddler.  It’s fun but hard to get the right shots.  I think I asked little Leia, “where is baby Mikey?” about 100 or more times in an hour.  Mom probably said the same thing about 101 times.  =)

This family is soon going to go down in the books as “most photographed by me” winner!  With Leia and the new baby on the way I know that I’ll be seeing a lot of them!  But I couldn’t be more happier!!  It is the absolute best to become friends with my clients and even better to have a job where I feel like I’m spending time with my friends rather than just working.

Imee, I know that you said no pictures of you by yourself but I couldn’t resist because you looked so cute here!  I can’t wait to see you as soon as that little guy is born!!

When you’re pregnant there is nothing better than ice cream. Well, at least for me and for Mary, who is about to have her baby girl any day now. We decided to get in some more maternity pictures before the baby gets here which is going to be soon.
Here are a couple of my favorites from today’s fun session. Something for my clients to keep in mind is that having ice cream at a photo shoot makes for a happy photographer! Just kidding.
