Expecting Baby Colette | Maternity Session | Wendy Childress Photography

This session was close to my heart!  This is my baby brother and his beautiful wife and they are expecting their first child! They are expecting a girl!!  Today was full of surprises as they revealed the gender of the baby and her name! We couldn't be more excited to meet this little princess!  I was honored to once again capture moments for my brother and sista.  I love documenting their love and their growing family.  We ventured into the hills in Los Angeles for these views of the city, one thing they are both passionate about!  Here are a few of the favs from their maternity session!

It was so great to catch up with this mama!  We used to live on the same street years ago, it was so fun seeing her again!  We went to one of my favorite locations to capture their sweet baby bump.  This little princess is already so loved and I can't wait to meet her.  Heidi and Tim, thank you for choosing me to capture these moments for you guys!  I had a great time chatting with you both and am so excited to capture more moments once Athena makes her grand entrance! Here are a few of my favs from their maternity session in the preserve!

Ahhh!  I am in love with these images!  I just adore photographing expecting parents.  They are so in love with each other and so excited about their unborn child.  It makes for a magical session.  This is also one of my favorite locations...I just love the trees.  The way the light filters through the leaves is gorgeous!  Put my love of the location together with this beautiful expecting couple and you have yourself one happy photog!  Enjoy some of the images from our maternity session in the forest.

Marleen + Thomas | And Then Comes Baby | San Diego Maternity Photographer

They say pregnant women are glowing... this mama was beaming!  Seriously...she makes pregnancy look easy!  I had the absolute pleasure of photographing Marleen & Thomas during this amazing time of expecting their first child!  There is so much anticipation of meeting your unborn child... What will they look like?  Whose eyes will they have? What will their personality be like?  Having a child is life changing and I am so glad they chose to capture this time on film so they can look back at these images and remember the thoughts and the emotions they felt as they were getting ready to meet the little guy who will rock their world.  Congratulations Marleen & Thomas!  I know you will make outstanding parents... and pretty cool ones at that! Enjoy some moments from their session.
