Maternity Photo Session

I was fortunate enough to be able to have a maternity photo session done with the amazing and talented Angela Ditmore of Ansley Beth Photography. I met her by chance at an Open House back in October my doctor's office was hosting and knew right away that I wanted to use her! Chris and I had toyed around with the idea of doing a maternity photo session, but had not really committed to the idea. After talking with her, I got more and more excited and decided to go for it and am so glad I did! She is so sweet and is very laid back and easy going. Overall, a great photographer to work with and now we have priceless photos we will treasure forever! I could hardly wait to get started, but I needed to have a bigger bump first :) Fortunately, that time did come and on March  17 we met at Orlando's Loch Haven Park for what turned out to be an amazing shoot. Just in time too as our little man would be arriving in a little over a month! We were concerned about the weather as it was overcast, but we got lucky (it was St. Patty's day after all) and avoided the rain! I even wore green earrings just to be safe. Here are some of our favorite shots from the day:

 I'm so glad we were able to include our dogs Ronin and Toby in the photo session. They are very much apart of our family! (What you can't see is Ken behind the photographer making duck noises to get them to look towards the camera.)

Looking forward to the next exciting chapter in our lives...

I was really sad to say goodbye at the end of the shoot, but we would see her before too long as we asked her to shoot a newborn session with Nicholas which would take place within the week he was born! To see highlights from our session on the Ansley Beth Photography website click here.
