I’m so excited for these sweet friends! They welcomed their first baby and asked me to photograph these special moments. I had the pleasure of photographing their maternity session in Laguna Beach then a few months later I photographed their in home family session, which I’ll share soon, too!
Ugh my sweet friends Emma and Nicole!! They went through IVF and welcomed a beautiful baby girl! I second shoot for Nicole A TON and she’s one of the best photographers I know, so I was both honored and insanely nervous going into this shoot. At the time, I hadn’t done a ton of maternity sessions, or at least not one recently and photographing your mentor is stressful as heck!! I felt like I didn’t know how to direct or any ideas went straight out of my mind! It was overwhelming, but fun at the same time. Even though she told me she loves my photos (and I believe her), it’s still intimidating and I wanted to deliver the best photos to her and Emma.
We met at Top of the World at golden hour and let me tell you, it was beyond dreamy! The light was perfect and the hills looked awesome in the background. It’s definitely become one of my favorite places to shoot at .
Capture real, raw moments.
