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!

I'm super excited to share these images tonight!  I loved everything about this boho inspired maternity session!  The location, the theme, the floral crown, the dress, the knit booties, the glitter bomb and most of all the adorable parents to be...all of it...I loved all of it!  This sweet mama contacted me and said she wanted a boho theme similar to a styled session I had done in the past.  It was perfect! I was super excited to meet them and capture this moment as they anticipate the birth of their first child, a son.  I remember the excitment of being pregnant with my first child who also happened to be a boy.  Its such a special time, and I'm so honored to have been chosen to capture it.  They are such a cute couple, they are so in love and gonna make such amazing parents.  They have a whole village of family and friends excited for them and supporting them, this little man is already so loved.  I hope you enjoy some of my favorites from their boho inspired maternity session in the grove!

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.
