Waiting for baby

You’ve seen lots of newborns here at H&W, but this is the first time I’ve posted a maternity shoot—and I don’t know why I don’t do more of these! It’s such a happy time to be with a couple, plus it comes WITHOUT the sleep deprivation that parents of newborns bring to the table.

I spent a whole morning with Marissa and Joe, who are expecting their first baby next month, and I highly recommend spending time at their place. They have the most amazing cappuccino/latte machine I’ve ever seen, and Joe kept the custom orders coming all morning while Marissa and I, along with the lovely Sarah True of True Event and True & Wesson admired their gorgeous nursery and considered both wardrobe changes and ice cream flavors.

Marissa is one of the most gorgeous pregnant women I’ve ever seen, and was completely up for anything. And if you could see the way she looks at her husband—SO sweet.

    Can I put in the request not for a maternity shoot? It still might be a little while, but I don’t want to miss out!

    PS- lunch soon?

    Great shots of her, and she is a beauty. 🙂 Looks like it was a totally fun photo shoot, and free lattes all morning. How can you beat that??
