Shooting in one’s home not only provides the obvious convenience for the soon- to- be mother but it allows me to personalize the portrait session for the family. Pre-shoot I like to offer tips on what to wear and arrive with a convenient backdrop to be used with natural window light and a variety of wraps and scarfs to use in additions to my clients wardrobe.

Racquel was at 33 weeks with her pregnancy and was in great spirits during the shoot, such a joy to work with. Her husband who was working in the office next door was also game to jumping in for a few of the shots :)

Stay tuned for part two of this shoot as I will be back on location around mid February to follow up with their newborn shoot (I advise to have these taken within the first 2 weeks of birth).

Their ceremony consisted of some of the most loving and sincere vows that I have ever witnessed. When Maria contacted me last October to let me know she was pregnant and was interested in doing an outdoor maternity photos while they were in town for the holidays, I was thrilled. The weather was perfect, Maria was feeling great , and I think the pictures just turned out beautiful. Congratulations you two, I can’t wait to photograph your baby girl in March!
