When I spoke with this momma-to-be before our session, she told me that she did not like to have her pictures taken and would like me to just focus on her belly. But when I saw her in person, I couldn’t imagine why! What a beauty she is – and I hope that she sees herself as my camera does!
I hope you all aren’t getting tired of these silhouettes. I just adore them!

Facebook is an amazing tool – a way to connect with people across the country (or even world!) that you might not otherwise communicate with. About a year ago, I re-connected with some old (and I use that term loosely now that I’m in my 30’s – ha ha!) friends from my hometown in Ohio. It’s been really cool to see where they are, what they’ve been doing since the *gasp* 15 years since high school. One of those people just happens to live in Charlottesville, VA now – only a few hours from here. She asked me a few months ago if I would take portraits of her boyfriend and her when they came to the beach this summer. Flattered, I said, “Of Course!” Then, a couple weeks before their session, I received an email from ‘the boyfriend’ – who let me in on the secret – he planned to propose on the beach! Would I be interested in capturing the moment for them? ABSOLUTELY! :D And here’s just a peek at how it went:
And then we were able to take some portraits. I brought along some bubbly (since I was in on the secret!) and it was a beautiful evening! Now, I do not pretend to be an engagement photographer – and truthfully, I get nervous shooting couples – but they were so natural and so in love with each other that it was a breeze! Thanks so much, Aimee & Rich for allowing me to capture your love and I hope you enjoy this peek!
The obligatory RING shot:
And, of course, a fun silhouette!!!

My dear friend asked me to capture her expanding family and I couldn’t be happier to do so. I am super excited to also be there to photograph her birth this fall – her second VBAC!
Her idea for putting the family’s handprints on her belly was so cute – her son chose all the colors for each person and they were super excited to play in paint, of course!!
But we also got just a few belly shots to freeze this moment in time!

This little 5lb ball of sweetness was a bit older than my usual newborn, and tinier too! I always marvel at the littlest newborns who visit my home studio since my own son was 9lb 10oz at birth. These teeny tiny little ones are so much fun for me to play with!
Enjoy your sneak peek at little Leah!
