A Different Kind of Maternity

OK, so I know I suck at blogging, trust me in my mind I am going to get better.  The problem is I am talker, usually I know exactly what I what to blog about until I sit in front of the computer then it all goes away, so I am trying something new to either write it down while it’s fresh or record myself with a mini recorder…we will see how this projects works.

When “C” first contacted me about doing her maternity pictures I knew it was going to be fun, she said “I want document my different stages with different themes and incorporate “D” into them”, since I am always up for a challenge I agreed especially since this was a first for a maternity client.  I love them all but I think this was the most daring, this set is what she called her “B girl maternity” I couldn’t quite see it (in my mind) until she and little “D” showed up and we drove to the location.  It was COLD (even with the sun shinning so brightly that day) but they acted as if it was 80 degrees outside, little “D” is just a natural in from of the camera or just my camera as “C” likes to say :-) ….  I will blog the fall and other winter set next, here are a few from the “B girl set”.

Just Because

When “S” booked her session she said I want a picture for our Christmas Card but I also want some that reflects my son’s personality, something that we can look back on years from now.  After talking and getting to know her I came to the conclusion she wanted a session “just because”.   I know “just because” may sound crazy to some, but I have a love for what I do, I photograph my children all the time “just because” they have a new toy, a new scar, new outfit or an old outfit, so I love when my clients feel the same little “Q” has a love for train’s and his mom wanted to make sure that was captured “just because”.  I think in 2009 I will create a “Just Because” session.

“S” is into black & white, so here are a few.  I love when the photographs speak, and no I am not crazy but look closely you will can see the unspeakable bond in these first two.

Twice the Love

I am calling this post “twice the love” because this couple was blessed with not one but two bundles of love. I had the pleasure of spending the day with twin cuties, K & B. I tell they are two busy little ladies, K was kind of O.K with the camera but Miss. B was another story…she is one tough cookie. B reminds me of my little lady, you have to earn her conversation, smiles, hugs and anything else you can think of, so I know “P” was wondering if I was able to get anything……………take a look and you tell me.

Thanks “K & P” for allowing me to spend the day documenting your little ladies.

I love this one; like I said Ms.B is one tough cookie.

After “P” saw this one she said “That picture of me & K made my stomach tingle. Funny how I could feel her laugh.” This is one of the reasons I love what I do, hopefully she will have that same feeling years from now when looking at this photograph.
