lovely ladies – columbus nebraska maternity photography

April 25, 2012

When Yadira and her daughter Michelle walked into the studio, I could have sworn they where professional models!  Yadira is absolutely stunning and had the perfect baby bump and Michelle was adorable with the sweetest smile!

I think Michelle had fun posing with mom during their girl’s afternoon out.  She will soon be welcoming a baby brother, so it was extra special to be just the girls one last time!

Isn’t she adorable!?!

Yadira – this one is for you!  I wasn’t lying when I said you looked sexy!

and baby makes four – columbus nebraska maternity photography

February 8, 2012

I helped Ashley and her wonderful husband celebrate the arrival of Aurora two years ago and now I am beyond honored to watch Aurora welcome her new little brother or sister into their cute little family.  Aurora is so sweet and loving, she is going to make the best big sister!

I asked Aurora what mommy and daddy where doing during the picture above and to hear her squeal “KIIISSSSING” was so adorable!

stepping out from behind the lens – columbus nebraska maternity photography

March 23, 2011

It isn’t often that I find myself in front the camera, and I can’t even begin to tell you how great it feels to have this picture of myself… a picture that I’m proud to display and share with you all.When I look back at this picture I won’t remember the morning sickness that lasted well into my second trimester or the terribly embarrassing fainting spells that seem to only happen in public.  I won’t think about the constant back aches or the frequent Braxton Hicks contractions.

All I will see is a beautiful me, radiating in the splendor of pregnancy, patiently waiting and just simply enjoying living in anticipation of what the future holds.
