Simple Maternity

December 28, 2011

Meet the V Family!  They are wonderful people with incredible values and their home is warm and filled with love.  The children are excitedly waiting for their new little sister to join them.  If she looks anything like her two older sisters or her Mommy, she will be absolutely beautiful.  Because we took these shortly before Mom was due, we opted for something fun like everyone piled in Mom and Dad’s bed.  The kids were great and the older girls posed for me by the windows so I could get the soft natural light on their sweet faces.  I think I’m in love with the shot of their feet.  I just love their toes!

Ahhh – my first maternity session was back in June 2009 and I was sooo nervous.  I wanted to do some outdoor casual shots and some creative ones indoors in a studio.  The only problem was that I didn’t have a studio then!  So, we used my garage.  I had wanted to use natural light streaming into the garage.   Only two things prevented that.  First, it was raining so there was zilch decent natural light and two, my maternity client needed to be partially nude with fabric draped around her for the shot with the frame.  No chance of doing that with an open door!

I was very pleased with the results!
