One of the most incredible aspects of this career is witnessing the huge life events of so many people. When a past bride contacts me and says she expecting, I can hardly contain my excitement. I photographed Stacee’s wedding five years ago and to hear she was pregnant melted my heart.

We had been rescheduling this shoot for about 3 weeks because of the random springtime storm schedule and even though one was looming up high, we went for it. I love the weather before a storm because it’s always such dreamy light. This also meant shooting between 30 mph gusts, but that was a blessing in disguise since Stacee and I had a lot to catch up on and she also has amazing hair, and amazing hair don’t care.

Congrats, Stacee! I already have a crush on that little man in there!
