I've heard from many women that being pregnant is an amazing time. Having never been pregnant, I can't confirm or deny, but I can say that I know some women who really seem to come alive during their pregnancy. They appear to be more comfortable in their own skin, and they seem to have this amazing inner glow. I don't know if it's the artist in me that's able to see this or if everyone else can too....
This week I had the honor of photographing a dear friend who is about to give birth to her first child. She's due December 2, 2012. Recently, they found out they are having a girl..I'm not going to give away their big secret by telling you what her name will be, but it's absolutely perfect! I can't wait to meet this little cutie-pie and take lots of pictures of her. Until then, her mother makes a beautiful muse!
As I was prepping for the photo shoot I was thinking of all thinks pink and fabulous. I was grabbing pink ribbons, pink flowers, pink fabric...and the ideas were literally overflowing! We planned to meet at the beach just a couple of hours before sunset. While the sky was absolutely stunning, the wind was awful! But I adapted and came up with some cool ideas and the results are breathtaking!
Fortunately my muse, Laura, shares my creative vision!
Here are some of my favorite shots from our session this week:
I'm hoping my friends over at I Heart Faces (http://iheartfaces.com) will like the top one for their current competition, "wind".
