Maternity Photo Shoot!

Today Tyler and I went to the lovely and still looking barely pregnant Stacie's house!! Our daughters are cheerleaders together at Boone Grove. I approached her at a basketball game about doing some maternity pictures and I was so excited when she said yes! She is a great FaceBook poster so I feel I know her even better. Even pregnant she and her hubby are coaching softball!! Everytime I see her she is smiling. Taking photos of her and her lovely family will be a joy! So in preparation I have been looking at poses, lighting situations, ect. for maternity photo shoots. I found a list of tips for a maternity shoot that I gave her to read first. The tips went over alot of the same things of I was thinking of saying, but scared I would forget. They have this huge dog, Sunshine, and Tyler really liked her! It also gave Stacie and I chance to chat peacefully for a few minutes at a time. We discussed if we were using backdrops, her gorgeous front window, clothing, etc. I warned her that I might be there a few hours and even warned her it might look like I'm moving in with all the gear. She assured me they are patient. I sure hope so! Then she brought up paying me....(Stacie, you sure know how to put the pressure on), but I assured her it would my pleasure to take the photographs....little does she know that I plan on securing a spot to get some newborn photos WINK WINK! I need photos for my portfolio so this is a WIN/WIN situation as far as I'm concerned. Little baby Carson, you sure are loved. I saw all the beautiful things from your shower and the warm wishes your Mother recieves on Facebook. Hope my images will show all the love that is already being sent your way. <3 Renee
