Earlier this week I was so excited to post a bit of a preview of this lovely maternity session that I recently shot of my dear friend Yeily and her family. We decided to shoot their maternity-family photos in the same park where we once did when she was expecting Olivia. It’s been many moons since then and being a parent is no surprise for them anymore. As much as I love photographing newly expecting parents because of their excitement, their curiosity as to what it will be like once they have their baby earth-side, there is something so warm about photographing moms that are expecting another baby. Something about living it a second time around makes you value and appreciate things that you didn’t so the first time around. You are already aware that time slips by you incredibly fast so you take each moment in a bit longer the second time around.
I’m afraid I already made Yeily cry with my last post, so I will keep this one light and sweet. Working with them this time around gets me so excited to see them each with a little girl in tow. Olivia is going to be such a great big sister. December will be here in a heartbeat and we can’t wait to meet you baby Allison. These are my favorites from our afternoon together.
So stunning my friend! Love frame after frame of you showing off that adorable baby bump.
💡 Tip: Next time you are trying to photograph toddlers or kids in general, make sure you bring lots of candy. Works perfectly to get their attention and we all know that for the sake of pictures, we are not above bribing.
