My heart swelled a bit when I saw that their due date was stuck in place on the perpetual calendar that sat on the shelf above her computer. I loved up on their dog and marveled at her open and free spirit. I love a girl who can jump on the bed at nine months pregnant. I mean, come on.
When I left, I hugged her and asked, “Can we be friends?” Thankfully she laughed and said, YES.
Got a text a few days later from Sarah: “I can still smell you on my dog and I am obsessed.” (fyi Patchouli oil all day erry day)
Gasp!!! The one with them snuggled, nose to nose…. oh. my. goodness. Absolutely stunning! As they all are!
love this, Tara.
Perfection, as always… I can just feel the love and serenity emanate from these images *sigh* <3
tara. wow. sarah shared these with me a few weeks ago and i sat still with my jaw hanging open. they are the favorite of yours, ever. and i have followed you for a long, long time. they speak to me in so many epic ways. and i hate that word, epic, but these photos deserve it. i know her and i see how you lit her fire to come alive for you. and i mean for you, as though the camera was not there. true art.
Thank you Tara. These are a-mazing!
you work always amazes- you ALWAYS capture the connection between people. <3
I can’t even. So, so beautiful. You captured everything so wonderfully. Swoon.
Gosh your photos make me happy Tara. I just love to stare at your images. They always remind to stop and pay attention to all the beauty around me. There is so much of it. Beautiful.
Sigh. Love every single one of these images. …and frick. Now I need to dye my crib sheets. Like, tomorrow. xo
So good. So so so good.
Tara-
these are beautiful photos. What a beautiful couple! You are like a spirit photographer, there but not there – it’s not just beauty or an image you capture, but spirit, soul, essence, time, energy, radiance, light & love… bravo.

Beautiful, darling. xo
Im in for the holidays and Mylos birth, theses pictures are so great!!! Thanks so much !!!!
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! Please share her blog if you and she don’t mind.
These images I’m sure will be treasured by them always. I can tell that you captured their free spirits, and their love. Just beautiful!
what a truly stunning couple…just gorgeous! the bits and pieces and looks you capture are truly magic. you have SUCH a gift!!!
I kept saying “this one’s my favorite” “no this one’s my favorite” as I scrolled through. I finally gave up. I love them all. They are incredible! Thank you for sharing! Hope we get to see baby Mylo.
Wow! These are simply gorgeous!
this one tugs at me. something so real and sweet. every one is magnificent.
These photos made me cry. At first because they are so beautiful and honest that they punched me in the heart, and then because I so want these for myself…and I wasn’t brave enough to have maternity photos with any of my three children. If I ever have a fourth (gasp! did I just type that?!) you will be the first person I call!
These are the best expecting-baby pictures I’ve ever seen. I was completely captivated by the energy, the excitement, the light, the reflective spirit, the various personal props… Truly awesome work!
I just stumbled across your blog (have I been living under a rock?!). These photos stopped me in my typing-tracks. They’re stunning! You captured such intimacy, and personality and beauty in this shoot. I love it. So happy to “meet” you ;)
sigh… so good. such a beautiful couple.
