Truth be told, it is rare that I get to do a maternity session. Weddings sort of rule the roost around here at Sweet Pea. But when I first started off in this venture, it was with the intent of photographing Family Portraits. Of any sort. Maternity included. So this was like going back to my roots.
I give you The Lovely, Amy.
Who is 8.5 months pregnant with her first child. (Yes... I said 8.5 whole months. Lucky Girl.)
This is Maia {pronounced Maya}. She will be here at the beginning of December.
Now, usually new clients looking for maternity photos are incredibly uncomfortable.
And I totally get it. I mean, I am going to come to your house & ask you to undress yourself for money.
Knowing this, I always do my best to put people at ease. Because I sympathize & understand.
....So if the women are uncomfortable, imagine the men!!!! Most husbands are usually off hiding somewhere in the other room under the table, only to emerge when they are summoned. But not Edgar. He is a Superstar Husband & did such a great job supporting his beautiful wife & being my stand in, hands on assistant.
What a Hubster he is!
We went to Carmel to catch the sunset at The Beach. It couldn't have been a nicer afternoon.
Okay, so I love Amy & Edgar. They are so in love. It is completely obvious. And they are so full of excitement & anticipation to meet their baby girl & become parents for the first time!!!
It's a beautiful thing. Truly.
I worked darn hard for the following shot. And we all got wet in the process. Good times!
Love, Love, Love this....
I can't wait to see these two Love Birds again after Maia arrives to meet her & take her Newborn Photos.
I'm so lucky! : )
