Tiny Baby Bump

This has to be the tiniest baby bump I've ever seen.  LOL!  From the front she doesn't even look pregnant.  Congratulations Shante' & Gary on your baby girl that's on the way.  Although, I know our shoot was impromptu, I'm very glad that you guys traveled so far for me to have this great opportunity.  I feel honored.  Please let me know when you deliver so we can get those newborn pics early!

Cherish this Moment

I love photographing new moms! It always brings me back to
the moment when I was a new mom and if I could only go back in time to be able
to capture that moment in this way I would. 
This couple had that new baby glow all over them.  You could tell they were excited and anxious
to meet their new little one.  It was
written all over their faces.  Mom glowed
with that baby glow that we all wish we could put in a bottle and douse it all
over us like baby oil.  There are soooo
many photographs to choose from so here is a little sneak peek. Their little
bun is in for a treat when they are welcomed into the world by so much love.

Mom and Dad! Thanks for allowing me a peek into your love
fest and I can’t wait to do part 2 when your little bundle arrives!

Newlyweds to Baby Bump

I have had the pleasure of knowing these two beautiful souls for a bit of time now and I must say I am truly honored that they chose me to photograph this special moment in their lives.  I remember looking at their wonderful wedding photos and thinking "Man every one of the photos are beautiful." I couldn't wait to get my lens on these two. So photogenic! They went from being lovey dovey newlyweds to enjoying these moment of maternal bliss and I must tell you that  they truly deserve all the joy and  happiness that they are and will bask in when their new bundle of joy arrives.  She will be loved beyond measure and I can't wait to meet her.

Terrence and Jackie thanks so much for allowing me a moment into the love that you two share for one  another.  I hope I did it justice!

P.S. Her make up artist was a  gem!  Felt like we were old friends.  Having a fabulous make up artist on the set always a plus!

She’s a WHAT!….School Teacher

Ms. G.  My oh my.  When I was growing up my school teachers were always so frumpy, mean, and so not cool! But that is NOT the case with hot Ms. G! This is not the image that comes into your mind when you think back to those teachers who used to teach you with their wooden rulers in hand.  But not only that she is the hottest, pregnant schoot teacher I could ever imagine! Ms. G was my youngest son’s kindergarten teacher and she means the world to me.  He LOVED Ms. G to point when I was a little jealous.  I mean I am his main squeeze NOT Ms. G! I mean come on I literally handed my baby to her and trusted that she would mold him into the brilliant little boy he is now…and she has not failed me one little bit! 

Ms. G! Thanks for everything you have done for my baby and my family.  I hope I was able to bring you just a bit of what you have given to us these past years.  Can’t wait to meet your little one!!!

P.S.  Never ever ever ever ever say again that you take bad pictures….Ms. G..You RAWK!

Maternal Bliss

This couple truly defined the meaning of maternal bliss. Both of them were so lovng and caring for each other during the entire shoot. I kept finding myself speaking in “soft tones” because they made the mood so calm and soothing..and I thought that was MY job. I tell you it was such a pleasure to witness a couple being pregnant with their first child and be so totally in love with her before she even arrives. Thank you guys for making my job of capturing this moment so easy, fun and full of emotion. I can’t wait to meet your first born as she is trully blessed to have such wonderful parents as the two of you. Here is a little sneak peek from the story of your maternal bliss as seen through my eyes.
