What a fabulous maternity session I had on Saturday!  I was ecstatic for the sunshine that came out.  The day before the session the skies were grey and I was praying that a miracle would happen.  My prayers were answered.

I met with Karen a few weeks back, chatting with her about her first pregnancy.  She was glowing from inside out.  She is one of those people that walks around with a smile on her face, at least it seemed to me that way.  I cannot imagine her being any other way.  We set the time for the session and decided to scout Columbus metro area for the location, being that I just moved here a couple of months ago, and Karen is not a native of Columbus OH either.  Then Karen told me about Breathing Space Yoga studio, where she works out.  It sounded like it was a match made in photographer heaven–land with a red barn, and a studio with a lot of natural light :) .  I scouted the location before the session and met the owner–gorgeous Gina, whose warm hospitality swept me off my feet. I was in love with what I saw!

I met Karen and Ryan, along with their happy family pup on Saturday on location.  They were more than amazing–a supermodel couple.  I ended up with too many favorite images!  Here are a few for you to enjoy.

As I was finishing a session from last week, I came across a few more of my favorite maternity images.  Check them out.

Have to love their sense of humor!!!

I woke up today, very slightly worried that the weather will force us to cancel a maternity session that I have been anticipating for a long time.  The gorgeous couple, Whitney and Matt, I was going to photograph was driving in all the way from Seattle  WA to Longview WA and it made me sick to my stomach to think that we would have to reschedule.  When Demetrye [my hubby] saw my concern he tried to calm my fears: “It will be alright, baby,” he said and then prayed for the rain not to come.  Thank God his prayers were heard.  The weather was fabulous!   It was overcast, no sun, but no rain either [although I went out and bought the biggest umbrella I could find in town].

While I am getting ready for my next session today, I picked out a few of my favorite shots from the maternity shoot [it's all about bellies ;) ] and wanted to share them with the world and with the happy couple.  Matt and Whitney will make the sweetest parents–they are both so kind, gentle and nothing but smiles.  [Guys, you were such a pleasure to work with!]

Enjoy!

I have been toiling over processing images and placing orders today.  To get my creative juices flowing I picked one of my favorite images from the last maternity session and totally completed it.  It is as breathtaking as its surroundings.

I can feel the love flowing through my screen.
