Whitney’s Maternity Pictures!

Whitney is another amazing friend from the photography program (in addition to all my photo friends having babies, 3 of my freshmen roommates are pregnant).  She recently had her little girl and I’m finally getting around to posting some of these pictures!  I was in Utah for a wedding and it was perfect timing so we could do this shoot!  Whitney chose the location, which I loved, and she stuck with it even though it was freezing.  We did very few pictures in short-sleeves before she changed into something warmer!

Her husband was able to meet us and we got some adorable pics of them together :).  As a photographer I don’t think she gets many!

April – Adorable and With Child

I’ve had some interest in seeing more of my maternity pictures, so you’ll see some this week that never got posted!  I first posted a few of these over a year ago!  My friend April went through the photography program with me at BYU and had an adorable little munchkin that I still haven’t met.

These first ones were all taken in their old apartment in Washington – they had amazing light!

Love these next ones… :).  I imagine every woman who’s been pregnant can appreciate these camera angles!

The boat pictures are my favorite!!  While driving to our next location we shouted when we spotted this row boat in the middle of a field.  It was raining (as you may see), but we ran out and shot as fast as possible.  It made us so happy.

April wanted something different and kind of edgy. She found this way cool location, that worked out great because it protected us from the rain (most of the time)!

April and I ran excitedly around the dirty, abandoned building like children (not that you would usually take children to such a place).  It was different than many of my shoots, but it was awesome.

By this point, it was pouring, but it created a really cool reflective look on the cement outside our hiding spot.  Isn’t her belly the cutest?

When April went into labor I started getting text updates every now and then. I later found out that I was included on the exclusive texting list for the grandmothers – I was equally as excited! 🙂

Blogging Hiatus

I’m holing myself up to get all of my client’s pictures online and available for purchasing so I’ll be absent from the blogging world for at least a few days or so! So all the sneak peaks won’t really be sneak peaks anymore, but I’ll catch up on blogging so the rest of you can enjoy some fun pictures!

And, before I go, here are some pictures from my most favorite maternity shoot ever with one of my most favorite girls from the photography program at BYU (there are about 4 or 5 favorites, but she definitely ranks up there among them). She lives in Washington now, so it was so much fun to get to do this shoot when I was up there for a wedding!

I give you…April and “probably boy.” She’s even letting me name him.



Kristi and her boys

This is one of the last shoots for my bfa project! I did one more that will soon be blogged. My sister has been this 18-month-old’s nanny since he was a newborn! He’s been featured on this blog several times 🙂 here (one of my first blog posts!), here, and here. This little guy is his cousin, so they both get to be in my show!

I think mom is around 7-8 months pregnant here, doesn’t she look amazing?!?



I’m having a hard time choosing one for my project, but I’m leaning towards this one, what to do you think?






I’m kind of in love with his face. Isn’t he just beautiful?!
