Matt & Melissa (& baby girl)

Meet my gorgeous, adorable, fun, sweet and pregnant sister-in-law, Melissa. I’m so happy we got to go visit her and Matt this past week. They are having a girl and I am so excited to be an aunt to a little girl! I think it’s pretty safe to say she will be pretty spoiled.




Matt is one of the funniest people I know and while we were walking around this park I was trying to get some pictures of them but he couldn’t not be funny for even a second. Melissa was cracking up and I just love this picture because it is definitely “them”.

And this one makes me laugh – a lot!
I just love this shot. So much love: I know Matt and Melissa will be amazing parents and I’m really looking forward to meeting my niece . Thanks you two for taking some time off work last minute to spend it with us . I had a really great time and I miss you already!

M

So M wasn’t really sure about having maternity photos done. She ended up scheduling one but wasn’t totally conviced this was something she would enjoy. We had a really short session but got some amazing pictures. I’m really glad she decided to do this (and now so is she – i know so because she told me so). Unfortunately she did not want her photos blogged but I just wanted to say thanks for trusting me and I hope you enjoy your images. I can’t wait to meet the little one

P.S. If you’d really like to see her album, leave a comment below. Maybe if we get enough requests she’ll come around

The monkey and the bunny

The monkey and the bunny. Little did they know that one day they would end up meeting each other and spending the rest of their days together. The monkey was Leeana’s first toy and the bunny was Don Paul’s first toy. Now the four of them are awaiting the arrival of Aliyah (expected at the end of May) whom in fact already has a brand-new monkey waiting for her. Her first toy. One of the many wonderful memories her parents are anxiously awaiting to start sharing with their precious daughter.

Isabella or Ryder?

Sunday afternoon I had the pleasure to go meet with Denise and her husband Steve. They are expecting their first baby whom should be coming some time in February. They don’t want to find out if it’s a boy or girl until the big day comes. However, they are starting to think of some names… The two names they mentioned to me were Isabella and Ryder. Both so cute!
I met them in a really special place for Denise – the house her grandfather built in the 1960’s and her grandparents lived in for many years. It is now the clubhouse for an apartment complex. Although a lot has changed, it was fun searching for things that were original to the house.
Thank you guys, you were so much fun! I can’t wait to meet (and photograph) the little one!
