Last week I got an email from Amanda. She was in town for a few days and decided she wanted maternity photos. I was thrilled. I had been wanting to go out and have a session with someone for a while. She was also game for whatever. We decided to do it on a day that is was supposed to snow. I think everyone BUT the Triangle got a few inches of snow. Which is sad because I was really looking forward to a snowy session! The weather sure was cold out. She was a trooper for a Florida girl :)

She has ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS eyes!

She was a bit nervous and sad about not having her husband there for the photos. He is deployed with my husband and will be back soon. I’m hoping he gets to make it home before their baby boy is born. I sure am excited to meet that little bundle of cute.

Last week my friend drove up here from Georgia to have her photos taken! She is going to have her first baby and he is a boy! I was super stoked when she asked me about her maternity and newborn shots. Megan is so cute how could I N O T want to have fun sessions with her! I hadnt actually got to see her since she’s been pregnant. She’s SOOOOO CUTE! Her husband Charlie and his son Xander also joined us :)

So at this point in time I had Charlie pose Megan .. and he came up with this .. pose. I think ill try this with all my baby mamas!Then Xander got his camera time. Its not that often I get to have sessions with older kiddos. So it was definitely a learning experiance. Xander also does not like to look at the camera. It was uncanny how he could look everywhere else but at me. Ive never had that happen and when he would smile he would move his face down. So he definitely cut my work out for me. In the end I think I did get a few good shots where he was actually looking at me :)He has super awesome eyes! These are barely edited.Im sure he was trying to give me some terrible faces at this point but I absolutely love this one. He just looks happy. :)

They are naming him Jack Danger! What an awesome name!I am so excited to meet your little one in February!!!

I was super excited when a friend of mine found out she was pregnant. I know she would be up for a lot photographically. I had a few plans but since I had been so busy my ideas went out the window. I told her to bring some ideas and boy did she. I think she changed clothes 10 times. She’s awesome and due soon with a little girl. Anyway these were my favorites out of her favorites :)

Nikki, Thank you so much for being my model for me. You look absolutely gorgeous! I cannot wait until I can meet little Shelby!
