Following yesterday’s BIG news I thought it only fitting for today to be another GORGEOUS pregnant momma! Tara hired us for her maternity+birth+newborn session in one big package and we are SO excited to walk through this journey with her and Derek (and Santino their super sweet dog!).
We met up with them at Lafayette Square Park, a location we haven’t been to in over a year! We kind of stepped back from shooting in that area b/c EVERYONE shoots in that area but MAN did we luck out! The trees were still beautiful and although there were lots of other photogs walking about we steered clear and did our own thing. And seriously, Tara might just be the most beautiful pregnant woman ever! Not to mention that she planned her outfits perfectly! Down to jewelry, shoes, clothes, etc! It was awesome!
I mean, right? Seriously. GORGEOUS!
We loved that Sonny hid his boy bits so perfectly for us! HA!
That fence kills me. I love it. And her headband? This awesome hand-made bead+wire creation…awesome.
Derek was ready to GO the second they got there because of course none of us took the football schedule into consideration when planning the session! HA! But he was a trooper through lots of outfit changes and well, I hope he loves the result of his sacrifice!
Tara… it was awesome getting to meet you finally and we can’t WAIT for the birth of this baby!
Wow, more proof that life isn’t fair! Why do some people get to look that amazing while pregnant?
(jealous!)
She is gorgeous! And her hubby and their dog are pretty cute, too! 🙂
This is my beautiful daughter,and her family.
Anxiously awaiting the arrival of our first grandchild.
Life never seems more beautiful than when a baby is born.
TJ-
You look beautiful girl! I am glad you went with Jodie, she does an amazing job! I can’t wait to see the pictures of the birth and the baby!!! So happy for you and Derek.
The lighting and the composition on each of these is just gorgeous and perfect! It’s been almost 17 years since I gave birth and I know I didn’t look anywhere near as good as she does! God bless all of them as they await this new family member.
I love your work!!! I will forever be stuck at amateur level but I know I will be visiting your blog often for inspiration.
Love these..esp the last one!!:)
These are perfect!!
