family photos// maternity

I was starting to panic slightly that we had almost NO pictures together since I have been pregnant.
We have plenty of me but none of us.
The weeks were dwindling down so we finally set a date with our dear friend Lisa and made it happen.
I pretty much would never choose to do a photo shoot in the middle of winter. I am a natural light loving, fresh air and nature kind of picture girl but I knew we would have to make it work. Thank goodness for Lisa and her ability to know me well and to see the potential of my big ideas in a tiny living room.
I do not think I have loved photos this much in a very long time.

When I look at these I see my family. I see us, the real us and it makes my heart sing.
More soon,
jess
