Northwest Arkansas Photographer. Maternity Photography. Whitney

Meet Whitney and her beautiful family (with another one on the way.) I had so much fun getting to meet and take pictures of Whitney and her family. Whitney is into photography too..... so we spent a lot of the session talking about our mutual love of photography! Whitney is absolutely gorgeous.... beautiful skin, beautiful eyes and beautiful hair..... made my job very easy!! Whitney thanks for being such a blast and being up for anything..... even at 33 weeks!

Quick snapshot of the family.....

Love the red hair with the bright pink shirt...... so sweet..... I just love color!

One of my favorite shots......I know I already said it once..... but Whitney your eyes are so pretty!!

Northwest Arkansas Photographer. Maternity Photography. Whitney: Sneak Peek

Just got back from a super fun maternity shoot with this beautiful couple. I was going through the images and found this one (it was literally the last picture I took) and had to post it. I think it is my new favorite picture! More of Whitney and Jesse's session coming soon!

Here is the rest of Heather's maternity session! The sun was out and the light was beautiful for her session! Sadly even though the sun was out it was still pretty cold.... and there was all kinds of chilly wind! Heather was awesome and braved the wind and never once complained..... I think I complained more than she did (I'm such a wimp about cold!) We had quite the adventure..... I dragged Heather out into random, muddy fields and made her climb though branches to get some sweet shots! Thanks Heather for putting up with me and all my crazy requests.... you made my day! Funny story from our session..... I found a hotel that had turquoise doors (my fav color) so I asked Heather to pose in front of one of them for a couple of shots. Next thing we know a group of guys walk up and start talking to us (a rather gruff looking bunch of gentleman.) Then one of them actually asks if we were taking pictures in front of the hotel door because this is where the baby was conceived. He was totally serious..... who asks that??! We promptly left after that comment and I have now dubbed that hotel the "shady hotel with turquoise doors" and won't be going back there any time soon. Heather I had a blast with you and can't wait to meet your little boy!!

Springdale, Ar Photographer. Maternity Photography. Heather Sneak Peek

Here is one of my favorites from Heather's maternity session.... I'll post the rest tomorrow but I couldn't resist posting this shot! Heather is my husbands cousin..... and I was so excited when she asked if I would do some maternity shots for her. It was really fun to hang out and get to know her some!! Heather braved some crazy wind, chilly weather and mud for this shot!! Isn't this just beautiful?? Once again..... mom-to-be absolutely glows!!

Maternity Photography. Northwest, Arkansas Photographer. Rachael

Here is the rest of Rachael's maternity session. Isn't she absolutely gorgeous..... women like her and my sister-in-law Jodi make pregnancy look good! I had never thought very much about doing maternity sessions until my sister-in-law Jodi suggested it and let me do one for her. Ihave to say I have been having a lot of fun with maternity sessions..... in fact it just might be my new favorite thing! Women just absolutely glow when they are pregnant..... it makes my job super easy!! Rachael brought her sister Melissa along for the photo shoot..... in fact the writing on Rachael's belly was done by Melissa.... so cute! We had so much fun wandering around in the fields over by Pearland. Rachael was awesome..... walking through all kinds of thick underbrush and standing in mud and puddles of water when I asked! Rachael and Melissa thanks for being so much fun..... and up for absolutely anything!! Rachael is having a little girl and she is going to name her Malaya (thus the picture below).... isn't that a pretty name! Enjoy!!

Here is a little tease of my maternity session I had with Rachael yesterday. I can't wait to show you the rest..... Rachael is gorgeous and such a stylish mom-to-be!! Her sister Melissa came along and the three of us had so much fun tracking though wet, muddy fields in our rain boots to get some awesome pics!!

Rewind: Jodi's Maternity Session

Wow! Life has been so crazy lately! I finally feel settled in our new place in Arkansas (and have internet)..... so I thought I would return to the blogging world and show everyone what I've been up to these past months! I thought I would start with one of my favorite sessions I've done recently with two of my favorite people..... my sister-in-law Jodi and my sweet little niece Scarlett! This is my first maternity session and I'm so thankful it was with Jodi..... she's absolutely gorgeous and just glows in these pictures. You would never know it but we were all being eaten alive by mosquitos while we were taking these pictures..... especially Scarlett.... so we took these pretty quickly! Enjoy!
