Amanda + Mark

Amazing people, these two!  Hands down, the coolest, most “out there”/”whatever you want to do, Lindsey” peeps I’ve met in a while! 

Awards for the coolest outfits of this year (so far) go to them!  It really takes an “out there” outfit to impress me; after 6 years, I didn’t really think an engagement couple’s outfit would get me that excited anymore.  But I hadn’t met these two!  A plaid bowtie, TO DIE FOR leopard shoes, with a LEOPARD skirt, bright blue shirt-dress, a plaid jacket…?!  TO-TO-LLY awesome.  Y’all just blew me away, you two!   Not only with your clothing choices (which were really just accents to highlight their AMAZING personalities), but with your ease in front of the camera and the love & connection you both have for each other.

More coming on the story behind some of these funny images later.  For now – bed.   

Thank you both for driving all the way from Baton Rouge on a random Wednesday!  Amanda, I can’t WAIT for your bridals! 

A few maternity photos from recent

My two mommies at the top are due in March – yay for Zach & Emma!  I can’t wait to meet both of you!  And the last mommy here has had her TWINS and I’m proud to say I met them last week!  They are GORGEOUS and you’ll be getting sneak peaks at some of my favorites soon!

Just wanted to share a few images from my recent maternity sessions – preggo mommies – DO THIS or you will regret it later!  Trust all of us and ask these girls here.  It’s so fun and such an empowering and amazing time of your life to capture.  (Don’t think you’re “gutsy” enough?  Go down a few posts and you’ll see ME a few months ago - the “bravest” preggo subject of all!  lol  

Yay for Loree! (and little Bailee, too!)

I’m putting up this post from my laptop on the couch with my feet kicked up for the night.  (The dishes from dinner can wait until tomorrow!)

I know my logo isn’t even on this image – I just happened to have it on my laptop while thinking of Mrs. Gabbard and wanted to share.  Poor Loree has been waiting and WAITING for Bailee to come for the past few weeks and finally, she’s coming this Tuesday morning!!!  She’s been sending out updates via texts to us for the past week because we all keep thinking, “It’s finally time!” and so I couldn’t have been more excited to get her latest one today.

About two weeks ago, we got together for  a maternity session, so I thought I’d share one of my favorites tonight as we all await this little girl’s arrival. 

Keesha

My first pregnancy session since I’ve been preggo myself!  I had such a great time with this family.  Keesha, you’re awesome!  And a big THANK YOU to Mrs. Emily Rutherford for the referral.  Thanks, chick.  

Santana

People say that women acquire the most amazing glow during their pregnancy.  I’ve always believed that, but have never seen such a “shine” like a did with this little mom.

Santana & Trey (as well as Miser!) were so easy to work with & totally trusted my suggestion to try their session on location!  It was just another amazing session on a beautiful day with gorgeous subjects!  Pregnancy portraits are just so much fun & so special, and I felt honored that Santana came to me for hers.
