Maternity shoots for first time parents are wonderful.  They are filled with a beautiful combination of hope, anticipation, love and excitement for the massive addition to their family.  They are also well rested…something they won’t feel for quite a long time after the baby is born.

It is so refreshing to photograph people that actually listen and take my direction instantly…no bribes needed. (I am specifically referencing my own children here.) :O)  This couple was adorable and had the best dog that perfectly reflects them.  The stars aligned with perfect weather, wonderful lighting and the sweetest and most well behaved pup.   I am eagerly awaiting the birth of their little one.  The combination of puppy and baby will be ridiculous.
