These two beautiful people welcomed their new daughter into the world only a few short weeks after these photos were taken.  Congratulations on the newest member of your family… I can’t wait to meet her!

Just a sweet preview on this rainy Monday…

I recently received an email from a fellow photographer, one who is in the beginning stages of our shared craft.  After exchanging a few emails I suggested we meet… on one condition.  I would tell her all about my journey into photography if she would let me photograph her.  (She is expecting her first little one in the spring.)  I think I got the better end of that stick as Mandi is absolutely gorgeous and willing to do anything to get the shot.  I LOVE it when my clients are also photographers!

We started inside, but quickly moved outdoors when I found out one of her favorite places is a park near her house.  The lighting was less than ideal, but we got creative and used some trees to our advantage.

Thank you, Mandi, for letting me share the afternoon with you, talk shop, and for being as excited as I am about natural light.    Can’t wait to meet the little one!
