Baby bump!

There is a bit of a baby boom amongst my friends right now. Several of them are pregnant and having babies this fall, but only a few are brave enough to let me take their maternity portraits! This is Jenny, a very dear friend of mine and a fellow photographer. If she looks familiar it's probably because I posted images from her wedding last fall. Her and her husband, Danny, are expecting a baby boy in September! Jenny is truly as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside. It was an honor to take her maternity portraits, and a bit nerve wracking with the added pressure of her being a professional photographer too! Danny is a musician, so he brought along a metronome to hold up to Jenny's belly! They were too cute for words. It took some convincing to get Danny to take his shirt off in the middle of a field, but I think it created some beautiful and romantic images. This is the same field I took some of their wedding portraits in, and we will be going back after the baby is born to do some of the family and newborn in the same spot! Jenny is hoping I got at least one or two good ones, and I hope she likes more than that. Here are a few of my favorites so far!

KRISTIN GIRL! These are amazing. Its hard to even pick a favorite. I saw the first few and I though...wow...those are nice and free flowing, but then I saw the one with the umbrella. It just seems to fit her, don't you think? The polka dots are fun, funky and amazing. And you are amazing too!

WOW!!!!

Thank you Kristen. That baby is lucky to have such a beautiful mom and dad besides his personal photographer just waiting to capture him!

The 2nd is my favorite, like a classical work of art - and the metronome and "shirtless" ones. Thank you for showing us that intimate connection!
