I’m seeing a lot of babies and baby bellies these days. Sara is the sister of Mike, who’s wedding I photographed last June. I love working with families time and time again. They become less like clients and more like…well, friends. 
Baby Jones will be arriving into the world in just a few short weeks !
(Presley’s shirt says, “Only child. Big Brother.” Aw, so cute. And oh so true.)
I love maternity sessions. There is something so beautiful about them, so intimate. Maybe it’s the mystery of who the baby is going to be, what they’re going to look like, or in Nancy & Tim’s case…what the sex is. (They know, but they’re keeping it a secret !) Nancy & I met two, (or three years ago?) when she contacted me about doing some anniversary portraits of her and her husband. We clicked instantly, as we had many things in common. She’s an artistic individual herself so we get along fabulously, now meeting for lunch on a fairly regular basis or wandering the Art Museum on a Friday night.
Earlier this summer we went to dinner and she was showing me her pictures from their recent trip to Europe. I knew they had been talking babies so I kept saying, “Are you pregnant yet??” She avoided the question And then at the end of the photos, I saw a picture of her & her cousins saying goodbye at the airport and they were touching her belly…a classic sign of pregnancy. Nancy & Tim are expecting little baby O sometime in early 2010. Needless to say I am beyond excited for them, and I cannot wait to meet the little one !
I really love the following images…so beautiful, and such a beautiful way to capture this journey in their lives.
