Despite how beautiful it was on this evening, DC spring weather was not very "spring-like" for a few days there in March. Freezing temperatures and rain made outdoor sessions impossible. So after rescheduling a few times, we finally got out session time and I'm glad we did it then. Four days later, a maternity session would no longer be in order-their baby boy arrived! Luckily we got to capture T's last few days (!) of pregnancy in a beautiful spring like setting...just in time!
This gorgeous couple just contacted me to let me know their little one has arrived...so I guess its time we get their maternity session up on the blog! When I made plans to meet up with them at Capitol Hill's Lincoln Park for their maternity session, I asked L how I'd recognize them. She said "I'm really pregnant and my husband is really tall". After that, I knew I'd like them. They endured cold temperatures and even survived a "middle of the street" shot (phew!). Can't wait to meet baby M!
From the moment I met them, I knew I'd love working with these two. Not only are they easy going and fun but they did their research. They told me all of the things they learned online for how to take the best maternity pictures. And they brought their sweet sister along to help out with their sweet pup. He was a great addition to these maternity pictures and I wonder how he'll feel in a few months when the newest addition arrives. To be continues in January, 2016...
One of the sweetest parts of this maternity session was that it was a surprise "pre-mothers day" gift from the dad to be. The cool (and rare) summer breeze and wonderful dusk light helped too. It was so fun to capture two dear friends at such an exciting juncture in their life. I know they'll make great parents in a few short months.
