Yay! I finally converted my website into a blogsite!  It’s something that I’ve wanted to do for such a long time.   I have been working long hours on this blogsite for the last few days, so I am excited to see it go live!    Through this blogsite, I am excited to showcase recent sessions, share things that are going on behind the camera, as well as updates on new services and products that I offer.  As you read my blog, I hope you’ll get to know me better and connect with me personally and professionally.  You can subscribe to my blogsite via email  using the email subscription box at the top  :)

Today, I want to share some of my favorite images from my recent maternity session.  I was referred to them by a previous client, which is my favorite way to meet new clients!  I had so much fun getting to know and photograph this gorgeous  mom-to-be, Ana, and her family!   I love it when the entire family are involved in the maternity session. It shows how supportive and excited they all are about the baby on the way, and I was happy to capture the love behind the special experience of pregnancy.  What was special about Ana and her husband was that they intentionally did not find out the gender of their baby, so that they can be surprised.  I don’t know how they were able to do that for about 9 months!   I would be so curious!!  But I am sure it creates much more excitement and anticipation!

Right after the photo session, Ana told me how comfortable she was during the photo shoot and she decided to also book her newborn session with me =)  It truly made me happy because my clients’ comfort is my number one priority, especially with pregnancy portraits.  As you can see, Ana is so beautiful and I am sure her baby will be gorgeous (or handsome) too!

Thank you for reading my first blog!    And please feel free to leave a comment, I’d very much appreciate it. :)
