Waiting for Baby H | CNY Maternity Photographer
Posted on July 16, 2010
Can I just tell you how much fun I had at this session? Jessica & Jason were just a blast to be around. We laughed and chatted like we had known each other for years. I love it when that happens!
I also love it when my clients are willing to try something a little different, perhaps a bit out of their normal comfort zone. I know many women are self-conscious about their bodies, and even more so when they are pregnant. But I cannot stress enough how beautiful all women are when they are expecting! The bump, the glow, the smiles of anticipation – they all combine to make some lovely maternity portraits! So if you are expecting a new little one, please contact me about documenting this special time in your life.
Now sit back and relax, because this is going to be a long one. I had a heckuva time trying to narrow down my favorites! We started this session in Jessica & Jason’s home, because their bedroom had some lovely window light.

I love, love, love the light in this one! Evening light is the best!

Then we moved out the yard. They hardly ever have traffic coming down their street. Except for when we were out there doing belly shots. ![]()

Next we headed down to Beaver Lake. It was evening, there were mosquitoes by the thousands, we all got eaten alive. And the little buggers just laughed at the mere 7% DEET in my bug spray. Next time I’ll have to remember to bring my Deep Woods Off.
I’ve always wanted to do a shot like this is a field. (shhhhhhhh… we did not stay on the trails – don’t tell anybody!!)

I looooooove this next series! It just captures the love and the laughter that make this couple so wonderful. They are going to be such great parents!

Yes, she is. I couldn’t believe it either. ![]()

We made a quick trip down another trail to get to the lake, just as the sun was setting behind the trees. I love the vintage-y feel of these next two.

Last shot of the day, with just a hint of pink left in the sky.

Jessica and Jason, thank you so much for a wonderful evening. I wish you an uneventful remainder of your pregnancy, a quick and easy delivery, and a beautiful, healthy baby. I cannot wait to meet your new little one (and to finally find out if it is a boy or a girl!). Keep smiling, keep laughing, keep loving.
