Stunning!/Asheville Maternity Photographer

This morning I did maternity photos for this soon-to-be momma and daddy!  They are the cutest couple I think I’ve ever seen.  I love when I do photos for a couple and their love for each other is just so obvious.  The way they look at each other.  The way she touches his face.  Just beautiful.  Awe, mushy, mushy.  I know!  😉  But wow!  Isn’t she just ridiculously beautiful?  And she knew exactly what to do.  I just told her, “You do your thing.  I’m not going to tell you how to pose.”  She already knew what to do.  And the husband says he’s not photogenic?  I beg to differ!  I really canNOT wait to do newborn pictures for them.  The gender of the baby is going to be a surprise and I’m so excited to find out!  Thank you guys for being so easy this morning!  I look forward to seeing you again soon!

 If you follow my blog, you know I love me some sun flair.  This one came out rather interestingly!

Just Plain Gorgeous!/Asheville Maternity Photographer

Every time I see a pregnant lady here lately, I get that feeling like, “Hmm…maybe one more baby?”  😉  Tonight I got that feeling seeing just how beautiful a pregnant woman can really be.  Although I felt more like a cow than a beautiful lady while pregnant.  This momma is just plain stunning!  This was one of those sessions where I raced home because I couldn’t wait to get home to work on the photos because I knew they were going to be gorgeousl!  It was easy to pick some to share.  So here are a few of my favorites!  Thank you guys for being so easy to work with!  That baby girl is going to be perfect!

Snow and 60 Degrees?

This morning I did maternity pictures for a friend of mine.  It’s funny, before a session, I always have in my head what it’s going to be like:  sunny, warm, beautiful light and I have poses in my head that I want to do and it NEVER ends up being the way I plan.  Somehow it just works though.  Today was supposed to be sunny, almost 60 degrees, gorgeous!  I was very excited.  When I woke up, I looked outside, and um, what?!  There was snow in the trees!  Are you kidding me??  So Sara and I braved the weather and went for it anyways and like it always does, it ended up being just fine!  This girl is just drop dead gorgeous!  She’s the kind of pregnant woman we all want to be:  happy, glowing, full of life and still knows how to have fun.  I love doing maternity pictures.  There’s just something so fascinating about pregnancy.  It’s just hard to believe that there is a little person there in that belly that’s going to be out in the world in just a few, short weeks.  It amazes me!  Thank you, Sara, for being so awesome this morning, even with a few distractions:  screaming children, hammering, chainsaws.  LOL  Hope you love your pictures.  More to come later.  Ryder and I have to get ready for a hot pre-Valentines date!  Woot!  Woot!  Happy Valentines weekend to all of you love birds out there!  Now go make some more babies so I can do some more maternity pictures.  Woah, inappropriate!  😉

I told Sara to make sure to “smeyes” and she knew what I meant.  LOL  If you’ve ever seen America’s Next Top Model, you know what that means!  hehe

Here’s big sister!  She’s a mini-me of her beautiful momma!
