This next sweet session was full of gorgeous sunshine, smiles, and searching for butterflies in a colorful secret garden! And the family was even sweeter, with the two most adorable sisters, Ava and Audrey. I had the honor of photographing Audrey when she was just 5 days new! They are excited about the arrival of their newest family member in just a few short weeks! We spent the warm summer morning getting some portraits that I can’t wait to share! So excited for your family, Jason and Jessica! Ava and Audrey will be the best big sisters!!! And now for some of my many favorites!
Earlier this Spring, we learned that we’d be expecting a new addition to our family! We let Remington in on the news right away, because we know that with a new baby comes some big changes and periods of adjustment. Santa Claus will be pretty busy this season… Our due date is 12/25/15! We had a perfect summer night to capture this exciting time! On Monday, we found out if we’ll be decorating the nursery with pink or blue! Keep reading! 😉
My dear friend is expecting her second child in just a few short weeks! She wanted to capture this special time since she didn’t have maternity photos taken during her first pregnancy. Audrey and I have been friends since meeting our freshman year at Indiana University. We’ve run countless miles together, with dogs, and with our kiddos. Our two boys have become great friends too, which makes us so excited and happy! They both love cars, trains, animals! And soon we’ll all be swooning over a sweet baby girl! I just cannot wait to meet her! Audrey, I’m so excited for you and your family! Here are a few favorites of my beautiful friend from our afternoon in the studio!
To say that I’m excited for this couple is a complete understatement. Leah and Daniel are expecting their first little bundle of love in December! They are having a baby boy, and I am just over the moon thrilled for them! I’ve had the honor of photographing their engagement and wedding, maternity announcement, and now their delightfully sweet maternity session! Leah and Daniel met me at one of my favorite parks, when the leaves were vibrant yellow! Since they had never been there before, I showed them some trails and playgrounds where they can someday bring their little guy and tell him all about how Mommy and Daddy came to this very same place before he was born. And they can tell him just how very excited they were thinking about holding him, snuggling him, and sharing nature’s beauty with him! Leah and Daniel, I hope you enjoy some of my many favorites from this gorgeous autumn evening!
As we strolled around the gorgeous grounds of the IMA during their engagement session, they told me they’d be contacting in a few years for family photos. Their wedding day was one that I’ll never forget. It was beautifully perfect from beginning to end. A few months back, I received a phone call from Leah. I had a feeling that I knew what she was going to tell me, and I was hoping so much that I was right! I got chills as she told me that she and Daniel were expecting their first child in December! If you’re lucky enough to know these two, you know that they are going to make amazing parents! They are genuinely sweet, kind, warm, and witty. Just cool people with the biggest of hearts. Sharing the joys of life side by side with their new little one will be so very special. With the threat of rain and the insanely hot and humid temperatures the day of their session, we opted to stay cool in the studio for their maternity announcement photos. And I cannot wait for their maternity session coming up later this fall! Leah and Daniel, I am SO excited for the two of you! What an honor it is to document this next season – truly an extraordinary and magical one – in your lives! I cannot wait to see you soon for your maternity session!
