I know I’m totally going to overload this blog post with photos from Katie’s maternity session in April! She is the sweetest thing inside & out and such a gorgeous mommy to be! Actually, I just photographed their handsome little man’s newborn session a few days ago, but first I have to share this one ;)
Katie’s maternity session was a surprise gift to her from her mom. After my morning routine of getting the kids off to school & grabbing myself another coffee, I sat down to read & catch up on my emails. I had a very special one waiting to be read from Katie’s mom. In it she explained that she wanted to surprise her daughter with this session to celebrate this special time in her life. I love surprises and her words were so so sweet ♥ Less than an hour later (& a few happy tears, gah!) we were surprising Katie.
I love so many from this session, Katie & Maxx are so adorable together. Here are a few (ha!) of my favorites from their session ♥
So I also have to tell you about the crazy adventure we had near the end of our session! It all took place in one location, the overgrowth & trees were just a short walk from the beachy sand area. Since it wasn’t far, I thought it safe to leave some of my maternity gowns where we were to as we walked down to finish up the last of the session. Christine (Katie’s adorably sweet momma) went over to grab one of the gowns to use and found a group of teenaged boys pulling them down off their hangers, and taking off with them! I’m not sure what they planned to do with them, I mean… if they want to play dress up! ;) Christine shouted something at them and ran after them. She must have scared the piss out of them because they threw them and ran. She was able to retrieve both gowns, thank goodness! Of the nearly 5 years I’ve done this, I’ve never had anyone try to take off with any of our props or belongings. So strange. Christine is a gown saving super hero rock star!
