When I am photographing mamas, especially expecting mamas or mamas and their babies, everything about it just feels right. I'm not sure if it's because I have experienced motherhood and know the joy and the incredible euphoric highs that come with it, but this is what recharges me.
I have known Ashley since we both attended pharmacy school in Monroe, Louisiana. She was a year ahead of me and we were in the same pharmacy fraternity even. It's hard to believe that all that happened six years ago, and she was just as beautiful then as she is now. We both serendipitously ended up in Little Rock where we did our residency at the same institution and she was actually my preceptor! I jumped at the opportunity to photograph her and that sweet baby belly. We had to play meteorologist for a few days until the perfect time came to capture her in all her expecting glory and I am so happy that we were patient. She is already an incredible mother to a little boy named Owen, and now as of two days ago, she welcomed her newest little boy into the world. Mama and the whole family is doing great. I can't wait to meet her new baby and photograph her lifestyle newborn session in a few days!
