I had the privilege of photographing Chris and Alexa's destination Maine wedding several years ago, and I was SO excited when Chris asked me to do maternity photos as they excitedly wait for their first child! :) 

We've worked together several times, and it's so fun to photograph clients that you've gotten to know as friends! 

We started out by photographing some details in their nursery, and quickly moved outdoors because we wanted to take advantage of the beautiful fall colors! 

Then the gorgeous sun decided to make an appearance and we soaked in the beautiful fall evening! 

Alexa, you look AMAZING!! 

So sweet!! :) 

Love seeing you laugh together! 

Chris and Alexa, thank you so much for allowing me to photograph you guys again!! I'm so so excited for you guys - you're going to be amazing parents! :) 

She's a busy mom of (almost) four year old twins, while finishing grad school, while working as a nurse, while being an awesome and adoring wife to her husband (whew! I got tired writing that!) - and she wanted to stop and document her family in this moment. In this season of life. To remember what it was like in the midst of the craziness. 

We met them at a favorite family hang-out spot, and they settled into the session like they were pros at being in front of the camera. Legit!! :)

Let me tell you something, parents: LOVING on your kids makes for the best photos - hands down. They hardly needed any direction at all! 

How sweet are they?? 

This little princess gave me one glance with her big deep eyes and I melted behind my camera a little. :) 

So much love!! 

Shout out to my amazing husband/assistant who attracts little kids to himself like he's made out of candy! They simply adored him!!

I love photographing parents that will get on the ground with their kids - play time got REAL. :)

Becky and Mark, thank you SO much for allowing me to photograph your beautiful family!! It was so fun to get to know you, and I can't wait to do it again in the near future!! :) Enjoy your priceless memories!
