It’s Friiiiday Friiiiiday. Haha JK. I don’t really want to get that song in my head {or yours}! So let me share Stephanie’s awesome maternity session with you. I am really happy with how these images turned out and I wish I could post every last one of them for you to look at. A gorgeous, glowing mommy-to-be, her doting hubby, and an array of cute props that Stephanie picked out to make her session completely unique = one of my favorite maternity shoots to date. We love Kyle and Stephanie and are beyond thrilled to meet their sweet girl, Charlotte {aka Charlie…omg so cute, right?} any day now. I have a feeling her newborn photos will be total cuteness overload 🙂 Thanks for letting us be part of this special time, Kyle and Steph! Enjoy your sneak peek!
Seriously Stephanie — too pretty! Little miss Charlotte is sure to be one gorgeous little girl.
One of Stephanie’s pregnancy cravings is ice cream, so she brought along all the fixins for a sundae 🙂 I LOVE this idea — such a fun way to document a little piece of your pregnancy. These images turned out super cute!Â
Clean cup club – no shame!
After a quick outfit change, we were off to shoot on this steel bridge/train track. Now I don’t normally jump at the chance to shoot on train tracks but this spot was too good to pass up, and we ended up with some images that  I simply adore. Hotness, girl! Kyle — you are one lucky guy 🙂 But you already know that, huh?
Is it bad that I want to go buy this maxi dress right now, and I don’t even care if it is maternity wear? I think the one on the left is just so pretty, don’t you?Stephanie and Kyle brought along a few props, including this ah-MAZING baroque frame. I think it is going to go in Charlotte’s room {if I remember correctly} — lucky girl!Pink balloons + Kyle makes me smile 🙂 He’s going to be such a good dad…completely wrapped around Charlotte’s little finger I’m sure. Â
I’m not gonna lie, when Kyle and Steph sat down to read this book, I thought it was adorable because the book is adorable, but I didn’t think much about it. The Charlotte reference was totally lost on me. And then halfway through shooting this set, it dawned on me and I yelled, “Oh! IIIIIII get it!” Wow, Chelsea. Wow. There are so many more where these came from, but I will end on this fave for now…
Big big hugs, Stephanie and Kyle. You knocked this one completely out of the park and I just love all of the special touches that you brought to the shoot. Troy and I can’t thank you enough for the opportunity to do these photos for you, and are standing by until we can meet your sweet Charlie.
