Our Maternity Photos

As we’re sure you can imagine, this blog post is a VERY special one for us! We’re a little over 10 weeks away from welcoming our little girl into the world and there aren’t enough words to express how we feel. There are so many emotions that come with having our first baby but the greatest emotion we feel right now is sheer excitement. It’s coupled with anticipation, love, hope, and joy. We are overwhelmed (in the best possible way) thinking about God’s goodness and mercy throughout this journey to becoming parents. It’s been one of the best seasons we’ve walked through as a couple and this baby girl has already begun to bring us closer than ever. We can’t wait to see what she looks like and to hold her in our arms knowing that she is a small part of both of us. As we pray each night for this little girl, we are filled with joy knowing that she is and will be our greatest blessing!

We are constantly asked about how this pregnancy is going and how I’m feeling. And in all honesty, I can say that this pregnancy has been absolutely fantastic. The last time we blogged about this pregnancy was when we announced it and I was still in the first trimester. We’re happy to share that I’ve continued to feel absolutely phenomenal throughout the second and now third trimester! I have energy, I’m not sick, my body is adjusting well, and although there have been little aches and pains in back and hips, it’s nothing serious at all! This has been such a smooth ride and we know it will continue to be from here on out. Her kicks are stronger and more frequent which definitely makes it more real and we love putting both our hands on my belly to feel her movements. We are forever grateful to the Lord for allowing us this privilege of bringing a sweet girl into this world and becoming parents.

With us getting closer and closer to her due date, we started thinking of our maternity photos. We knew we wanted both outdoor photos as well as more of a lifestyle setting to document this time in our lives. We are so glad we were able to do a photo swap with our friends Karen and Breno from Nassimbeni Photo and Films and we were able to have our sister, Liz, take our lifestyle portraits with Peanut. These are some fo our favorite photos of us and ones that we will cherish for a lifetime. Our photoshoot with Karen last week almost didn’t happen due to rain, but it cleared our at the end and we got the most stunning light towards the end of our shoot with her! And we love that we got to incorporate Peanut in our lifestyle photos with Liz! So without further ado, here are some of our favorites from our recent maternity sessions :)

What a beautiful journey this has been and we’re just so grateful for the way the Lord has moved in our lives and business. 

We’ve learned so much along the way and are filled with gratitude for the life we live 🩷
We help them build a timeline 🙌🏼

Here’s the deal: most of our couples have never gotten married before and aren’t sure how much time is needed for photos of each portion of their day.

That’s where we come in ☺️

We’ve shot about 200 weddings and we know how much time is needed to allow for photos to be captured without being in a time crunch and feeling flustered!

So we help take that burden off our bride’s shoulders and, if they’re working with a planner, we merge the timelines to make for a seamless wedding day 🫶🏼

The ultimate goal is for us to help relieve stress and for our couples not to have to worry at all about the logistics of photos on their wedding day!
We let them know that it’s totally normal to feel awkward the first 10-15 min of the session 😅

It takes the pressure and expectations off of them and helps them relax almost instantly! 

And it’s our job as their photographers to help them feel comfortable and at ease (even with a camera pointed at them) during our time together.

Making our couples comfortable (especially the guys, who normally don’t like photos lol) is top priority and sometimes letting them know it’s ok to feel awkward clears the air! 

Go ahead and share this with an engaged couple that needs this reminder 🙌🏼
