When my beautiful Barbie Doll of a cousin, Lindsey, announced that they were pregnant at Christmas Eve dinner this past year, you can imagine how over the moon that made this Louisville KY Couples Maternity Photographer with receiving this incredible news! They are due to have their baby boy on their one year wedding anniversary. I did their engagement photos last year and it’s hard to believe how fast time has flown by since we shot those. We had not one, but TWO Maternity sessions for her so we could capture every bit of this gorgeous baby bump that we could. This is the first of the two and took place May 24, 2016. We included her husband for this styled couples maternity session, which I loved being able to record the intimate connection they have with one another. I had to break DJ out of his shell a little, but as you’ll see in their images below, it wasn’t hard for them to show their excitement about their upcoming arrival! We photographed this portion at the newly opened section of Floyds Fork in the Broad Run Park section. Of course we shot during golden hour and caught some amazing sunlight!
Lindsey is wearing a fitted dress from Sew Trendy Accessories in Champagne that she chose from my Client Wardrobe. I have several beautiful maternity dresses available to all maternity clients that I work with. It helps relieve the pressure and stress of moms trying to find something to wear AND that makes you feel beautiful during your session. You can find the dress here.
This amazing boho chic vintage inspired lace dress is from Leah Maria Couture. It has quickly become a client favorite!
Stay tuned for the studio portion in the second half of this styled maternity session.
