This sweet couple is waiting on a girl to arrive this summer. I met them on a hot and gray summer evening. We were hoping to be able to catch the sunset but we were met with dark, gray skies.  We made the best of it though.  Mom chose to meet at Raulston arboretum in Raleigh which was the perfect location.  She will be the one to tell you that her favorite color is floral which is perfect for an arboretum photoshoot. We walked around and admired all the beautiful flowers in bloom, which can be rare for summer in Raleigh.  I absolutely loved the dress this expectant momma chose for her session. It was gorgeous and looked beautiful against all the blooms. I had a wonderful time getting to know this couple and can’t wait to meet their sweet baby girl in just a couple of weeks for her newborn session!

This session last fall was so much fun! This sweet couple contacted me wanting to capture such an exciting time in their life. They were expecting twins – a boy and girl.  I met them at their home which has a wonderful park in the neighborhood – and one that I am very familiar with as I used to live in the neighborhood right behind theirs. I instantly got excited because I was familiar with the features at the park and the gorgeous evening light that it has.  The weather was gorgeous, and so was this glowing mama to be.  I had a great time just strolling through the park getting to know them. The session was laid back and easy, and so enjoyable. Definitely a pleasant change from chasing around little ones.

Since I am so behind on blogging, their sweet babies are already home and a couple months old now. This session probably seems like forever ago for them!
