Maternity Photo Shoot-Wieberdink

The other day I had the pleasure of photographing these parents-to-be.  This is the Momma of the first baby shower invites I created (round one) and she received a gift certificate from her best friend for a photoshoot from me!  I haven't touched my camera all winter, so I was a little nervous about getting some good shots, but these two made it so easy.  They are so excited for their little girl to arrive and you can just see how in love they are in all their pictures.  They were very compliant with all of the awkward poses I would put them in, well except for the baby, every time I said "Okay, great, don't move!" that little girl would kick in her Momma's belly.  She's going to be a wiggly one I think...

When we originally set up plans for the shoot it was 50 degrees and I thought the weather was on the upswing.  I was wrong.  We were able to use their neighbor's empty house for our shoot which worked out perfectly, because there was room to play, and we stayed warmer.  The lighting was a trick though and luckily Daddy-to-be was super helpful with a shop light.   Eventually we did venture outside for some quick shots in the beautiful yard.

These two were so much fun to work with and I hope I get to see that little girl when she is born, I told them that is part of the deal of a maternity photo shoot.  I think I might have to write "newborn snuggling time" in as part of my contract so I can get my baby fix whenever I want to! 

Below are some of the photos, enjoy!
