I could not be more happy for Angela and Brian. They have definitely had a whirlwind year. It started the end of 2010 when they got engaged and I headed to Texas for their engagement photo shoot. They got married in the spring of 2011, when I again made my way to the Lonestar State to photograph their wedding and just last night they welcomed precious Ethan into their lives and they became a family of three! So, while I was in Texas for Christmas I got to capture Angela’s last month of having Ethan in her belly and the joy of Brian sharing that with her…

Laura and Joe’s precious Gabriella is being born today (a scheduled delivery) so I think it is the perfect day to feature Laura’s beautiful baby bump! We actually went to a park that is extremely close to my house yet I never knew it was there-it was very busy so we found a few quieter spots and settled in. Laura and Joe are super laid back (and I laughed a lot on this shoot-thanks Joe!) They are going to be amazing parents and I was thrilled to capture Joe giving his little girl a lot of lovin!

Kelly and Dave are expecting their first bundle of joy…a precious little girl they have named Kendall and I could not be more thrilled for them. So we just had to document what has to be the most adorable baby bump I have ever seen. To do this we headed to Winter Park in the early evening and my, oh my it was very hot. We attempted to take some shots with a yummy strawberry gelato but as you’ll see the melting process began immediately (of course it did turn out to be a welcome treat from the heat!) Kendall will make her grand entrance into this beautiful world and welcomed into the arms of two amazing parents this month but for now here is the soon to be family of three…

I met Andrea at her and Ed’s home so we could get some special bare belly shots. When I got there I found out that Andrea and Ed have four, not so small, kitty cats and they wanted to be part of the action too (as you’ll see). Andrea is beautiful, radiant and glowing-she is a mommy-to-be! These shots are very special and for Andrea to treasure and remember her special time with Harper…

Watching a couple turn into a family is amazing. Andrea is going to be a wonderful mommy and Ed is going to be one great dad! We had so much fun wandering around finding different locations to capture this soon to be family. It was so endearing to see Ed take care of Andrea and to be there to be a part of the experience. About a week after this family photo shoot Andrea and I did a bare belly photo shoot that I will share with you next. Their little precious Harper will be here soon but for now I would like to introduce the soon to be St. Onge family.

Oh sweet Hannah! I have known Hannah for several years now and to know that she is going to be a mother this month is over the top exciting. Hannah and her husband Jeff will be welcoming Gabby in just a few weeks but before Gabby got here Hannah wanted to surprise her husband with some special shots of her to remember this extraordinary time in their lives. Hannah is absolutely a beautiful mother-to-be and I am sure once Gabby is here that glow will only get brighter. Hannah and her hubby Jeff are going to be wonderful parents and I for one cannot wait to meet little Miss Gabby!
