I'm Michelle
Because you shouldn’t have to choose just one moment to remember, this is your way to hold on to the whole story.
Because some moments are meant to be seen as they unfold, movement, emotion, and the beauty of this season, just as it was.
Mom was expecting a little girl in just a few short weeks, and can you say glowing?! She has since had her beautiful baby girl, Olivia, and I can’t wait to share their beautiful newborn session soon! I am way late in the game blogging her beautiful maternity session, but couldn’t resist sharing because it’s one of my favorites!
This gorgeous lady had on an ASOS pink flowy dress that hugged her baby bump in such an elegant way. I call this dress in my wardrobe collection the princess dress because I just love how feminine it is. I am a sucker for sequins and tulle! I love it so much I wore it for our family photos this past Fall. This mama is seriously stunning, and was grinning ear to ear the whole time. I love how much she loves her family!
We decided on using the gorgeous outdoors for this session, and I’m so glad we did! It was truly the perfect day. The weather was perfect, and the scenery was breath taking. I loved the contrast between the light grasses and dark trees in the background. The field framed these three in such a beautiful way.
