Ginny + Ryan (& Briley) {Maternity Session}

// Author: Lauren // 0 Comments

I was so excited when Ginny emailed me to inquire about Maternity & possibly newborn photos. Newborn photoshoots are one of the main reasons I built my studio earlier this year and I was dying to get more lil’ babies infront of my camera. She also was very certain she wanted maternity photos including her daughter, Briley, which made me even more excited.

Briley took a little while to warm up to me, but I kept trying & we all kept bribing. I think she did great. I hope she got her stop at Dairy Queen on the way home…

Warning: Prepare for serious cuteness overload.

Once again, I spent an hour trying to pick and choose which photos from this adorable session (in the park) to share with you (on the blog). Sometime I wish I could just share them all! Anyways…

I have been photographing Lil’ Miss Riley since she was just a few weeks old and wow, what an honor. She is such a beauty!natural model, I swear. Momma was so worried she was worn out from a busy day at Idlewild and we wouldn’t get any good pictures, but if you ask me – there isn’t a bad one. She is a rockstar!

Doesn’t she just warm your heart? I have a feeling mommy and daddy have trouble on their hands… Such a beauty queen & she knows it! In just a few short weeks Miss Riley will be TWO years old already. Where have all the babies gone? I hope you have a fabulous birthday Miss Riley girl & I look forward to photographing you again 🙂

Holly & Brad {Maternity Session}

Growing up in a large church you slightly remember vague memories of people who came and went, but I remember Holly & her family very well. Although her and her sisters were older than me, they always seemed so sweet and they were all beautiful.

Flash-forward years later and I receive a kind facebook message from a beautiful, pregnant woman looking for maternity session, slowly I had one of those moments – you know, the moment you realize “hey she looks familiar, but how do know her?” Well, turns out Holly had grown up (just like all of us other Word of Life 90s kiddos), gotten married, and is currently growing the most beautiful baby bump ever.

I was so honored to capture her with her beautiful pregnancy glow. From the pictures you cannot even tell we picked the hottest and most humid evening of the whole entire summer (I swear), but they both were troopers! & I am so grateful that I can add these beautiful images to my portfolio.
