I could not have asked for a more gorgeous evening for these maternity photos!  Ashley was literally glowing and was game for anything!  The water was cold- this was last fall- but she hopped right in and rocked it!  Since then her sweet baby girl has arrived and I was thrilled to take her newborn photos as well!

To anyone trying to make a decision about whether or not to have maternity portraits taken- I urge you to DO IT! This is such a special time, and it only lasts for about 9 months!  I always loved hanging my maternity photos in my babe’s nursery- when they get bigger, they like to see what you looked like with them inside your tummy!  So, even though you may not feel like yourself, or if you can’t tie your own shoes- document your days, mama!  You are beautiful!

Are you ready to exist in your photographs?!  Let me help you document your days 🙂
