I remember reading Ashley’s email inquiring about going to Green Lane Park for her maternity session and I was instantly excited! One thing I love about this job is that most of my brides become my friends and we develop a trusting relationship. Seeing Ashley and Elliott go from being engaged, to married, and now expected parents has been so amazing!
The three of us met at Green Lane Park a few weekend’s ago right as golden hour was approaching so I KNEW we were going to get some stunning images! As we were walking down to the bridge we were chatting about weddings, life, babies, etc. and Ashley said how comfortable she was with me. I had to hold back the tears (cheesy, I know!) because in that moment I realized that I had made an impact on her and her soon-to-be family. I am stopping time for them. I am hitting the pause button so they can look back when Miss Raelyn is 18 and going off to college and remember how they felt just a few short weeks before she entered the world. They will remember the moment when their lives changed forever. THAT right there is why I am a photographer.
Ashley is such a natural in front of the camera and between her confidence and the golden light… I was saying “yassss hunny!” every two minutes! The golden glow surrounded her and she looked absolutely radiant. I hope I look half has good as her if I ever become a mom!
