whimsical maternity photos

For many, many months, Rachel and I have been talking about doing some sort of whimsical/woodland type of photoshoot. She went off and got engaged/married and has been super busy but we were finally able to squeeze in a fun little photo session a couple of weeks ago. 

 

Since I was 35 weeks along, I ended up with some fun maternity shots. Rachel did an amazing job, as always. Her model was a little hard to work with though 😉 

 

I just wanted to share a few before the baby arrives! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Rachel, for a fun night out and some special memories!!
And as soon as I get the chance, I will be sharing the pictures that I took that night. I had a gorgeous model to work with!

maternity pictures

A couple of weeks ago when Rachel and I did the gender reveal photoshoot, we took some typical maternity shots as well. It was kind of funny to me because at this point 1) I feel like I’m just showing off the impact of my bad eating habits and 2) there are only so many different ways to showcase an expanding waist line. 

I have come to realize that I almost always prefer pictures of myself when I am not looking at the camera.

 

 

 

 

So thank you, Rachel, for sharing your gift with me and allowing me to document this point in my pregnancy. ***this was at 18 weeks

In other news, my best friend got engaged(!!) and I am now gearing up for being a very pregnant bridesmaid in her wedding!! 

I’m looking forward to these months of wedding planning! I have been praying for this day and I’m thankful to see how the Lord is working it all out.
