I’ve known this adorable lady for many years. Her mom has hired me several times to photograph their (amazing) adult family. When she emailed to let me know there was a baby on the way I couldn’t WAIT to do this session. Because, I mean, look at her. Full of personality and comfortable in your own skin? NOTHING BETTER.
We started in their little apartment, where the good light was found in the bedroom, bathroom, and balcony. Then we headed down to the grass near the beach to read and people watch, some of their favorite activities. As we were driving home, I saw the pink garage next to the red/blue burger joint and asked them to stop. It just happened to be the alley for the apartment she used to live in as a single girl. I love connections like that. Great little special nuggets for a special time.
