Brad + Crystal

I love materinty sessions. There is something about the expectant mother's glow, the proud glimmer in the new dad's eye, the perfectly round tummy, and the sense anticipation waiting for your little gift from God to finally arrive; it's like you can feel all the emotion radiating out of each image!

Meet Brad + Crystal, and baby-to-be, Braelyn. Crystal is a life-long friend of mine, and I was so flattered when she asked me to shoot these for her. We really got down to the wire, these were taken just about a week or so before she had little Braelyn Claire! This session was my craziest shooting adventure yet. There were police. Yes. Police. A first, and hopefully, last for me. Someone apparently thought we were doing something we were not supposed to be doing, and called the police. Very dramatic. But, fortunately, we were not doing anything illegal, and were sent on our merry way! Not the best kind of stress for a lady who is 8 months pregnant, but it makes for a good story!

I love the one with the teddy bear and the white background. How did you get that background so bright? What did you do?
