Madhavi is one beautiful mother-to-be! I had a great time capturing her maternity portraits with her husband Pradeep at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. We were treated to a cool morning in late summer, and the campus was quiet as classes hadn't yet begun. SMU always has great landscaping, and I love working with the impressive architecture found all over campus!
Back in the summer, I photographed Stephanie's maternity session just days before her little girl was born! I'm certain that she and Michael are amazing parents, and I hope their first year of parenting is going well. I have to say that I was impressed that Stephanie was willing to tromp around the Arboretum in the summer heat so close to her due date!
This session was my fourth opportunity to photograph Padmini, Ashwin, and their growing family. It's hard to believe that the baby who was still in Padmini's belly at their first session is now this adorable toddler participating in her new little sister's maternity session! Adriatica is always a great backdrop to work against, and I'm glad I was able to introduce this family to the area for their maternity portraits. I love working with Padmini and her family, and I hope to continuing doing so for many years to come!
In April, I had a blast photographing my Costume Designer friend Allison in all her adorably pregnant glory in downtown McKinney. Allison always comes to her shoots with props and hats galore, which is a little bit of a departure from my usual aesthetic, but so much fun to photograph. Some g-rated, pin-up inspired props and poses accompanied Allison's polka dot skirt and Cuban heel stockings. Then her husband and daughter joined us for some family portraits in the bluebonnets! Allison's an over-achiever and made her own skirt the night before this session. The white skirt she whipped up was perfect for showing off her sweet belly. I'm so glad we shot this session when we did, because not long after, Allison delivered a full month early! Her husband Devin, a medical student, actually got to deliver their 5 lb 2 oz little girl, who's doing great despite her early arrival.
