I’ve been doing photography for a little bit now and am always intrigued at the thought of trying something new, not new in general, but new for me.![]()
I have had several inquiries for maternity sessions, yet had no experience or examples of my work; that is until this past Saturday when I was blessed with the opportunity to do a session with Karie.
I’ll be honest, it was going to be really hard to mess this up, because she is just absolutely stunning and has that wonderful mom-to-be glow just bouncing off of her in every direction.
I asked Claudia (Karie’s sis-in-law) if her husband had a long-sleeved white dress shirt, I just had this feeling that it would look great on Karie and just really scream sexy yet sophisticated and eloquent.
I only had about 45 minutes with her and it is probably a good thing, because I think she was getting a little tired towards the end.
I’ll start off with the baby bump – her belly really looked cute and to be honest I thought she was maybe 3 or 4 months pregnant, whenever she said she was 7 months along, I just couldn’t believe it..

This next shot, to me simply states: you can be pregnant and still look incredible!

The next image just screams A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E.
Karie, you really look so cute in this image. The expression on your face just really really shows how incredibly happy you are.

I like this next shot as well, she just seems to be thinking about everything (like – Rick are we almost done here!!!)

Honestly Karie you definitely belong on a cover of one of those parenting or mom-to-be magazines.
I know you and Shane are 1000 miles away or so, but when you visit with the little one, you definitely have to give me a call – I’d love to do a session with you, Shane and your daughter!
