Nikki {Maternity}

This is perhaps the most unique and BOLD maternity shoot I’ve ever done. It’s not that I went out to do it that way, but given the storm that came in out of nowhere, and the trust level I had with my client…we had FUN and I just went for it! The storm came so quickly and cleared the whole beach so it worked to our advantage. :) This will probably be Nikki’s last baby, and we really wanted to capture her beautiful baby bump in all its glory! So here’s my way of telling a story…about five minutes before the storm…and then the calm, cool, and glisten of the water and everything after a good rain! Congratulations, Nikki…you are beyond beautiful and your baby girl will look back on these photos someday and will simply be AMAZED!

‘Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections…

For You created my inmost being;
You knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Your works are wonderful,
I know that full well…

Psalm 139:13-14

L E X I E {Newborn}

This little precious waited for longer than she had to for me to come home from traveling and take her newborn photos. I broke it up in several sessions. Here she is 18 days old, first time in front of my camera, and still a newborn. This first session was more like a lifestyle where I wanted to capture how small she is…how much her mama loves her…and how much her big brother adores her!AlexisSanew_2015_18days_MPeterson-122

There is nothing that compares to a love of a Mom for her newborn. Nothing.
