When I met this gorgeous mom-to-be at our pre-session consultation I knew right away how I would style her maternity session: light, airy, elegant.

So I went ahead, grabbed a cup of coffee and my beloved “Singer” sewing machine and got down to some serious design work. After a couple of hours her beautiful lace gown was ready! Oh did she look gorgeous in it!  On the day of the shoot we had a hair stylist and a makeup artist at my studio who worked their magic on her and I was pleased to hear that all this prep-work made her feel as if it was her wedding day.
