pretty mama.

i love maternity shoots. there's so much anticipation built into those last few weeks of pregnancy. this beautiful belly belongs to my dear friend, shannon. i love shooting her because she's so relaxed in front of the camera...that, and she'll do pretty much anything i ask her to do! ;o) i love the way these turned out...they're so much different than the ones i did with her first, noah (who was featured in a post a few weeks ago). can't wait to meet little jacob...

life around these parts...

you know life is busy around here when the blog posts are few and far between. i hope to get caught up soon but for now, here's a peek in pictures at what's been going on in the anaya household:

elijah rode his motorcycle BY HIMSELF.

 

lucy traveled with john and i to florida.

lucy got a highchair finally...

we went to the pumpkin patch!

halloween! (excuse the horrible noise on this picture...my camera settings were WAY off...and this was the best shot of the night)

i did a maternity shoot with my friends bryan and shannon (and their little boy noah...he was featured in his own post a few weeks ago).

i hope to do individual posts on each of the pictures but we'll see if it actually gets done. my intentions are good though!

soon to be...

yay for lots of photo shoots! i got to shoot troy and rachelle and their soon to be baby girl this past weekend. here's a few...

baby bump (no...not mine silly!)

yesterday i had the privilege of shooting natasha's maternity session. little kate will be here in june! can't wait to meet her.

unfortunately, natasha got sick halfway through our session so we didn't get to do everything we had planned...but we still got some good shots (in my humble opinion!). here's several of my favorites from our time together.
