With everything going on, many people have missed out on a few milestone moments. This beautiful mama thought she was going to miss out on documenting her final pregnancy. Luckily things are winding down (a bit) and we were able to squeeze in this beautiful maternity session for her! Lory and her family took Christmas minis with me and there’s nothing sweeter than a returning client. This family is just so stikin adorable and I was so excited when she asked me to photograph her baby bump! Lory is such a beautiful lady and it is obvious she is truly loved by family and friends.

LIGHTING AND THE THUNDER

The morning of her photoshoot, we had a big thunderstorm and it rained for a few hours. I was worried that we might not be able to get her shoot done that day, so I texted Lory that morning and she decided to hope for the best instead of rescheduling. Since we were going to Sal De Rey, I was worried that it would be muddy and muggy, especially since we have to hike a bit to get to the salt flat. I let her know several times because she’s a pregnant mama with little ones.

BUT SHE AND HER FAMILY ARE SUCH TROOPERS!

They took reinforcements and they were just so fun to hang out with! We took the hike as we saw the clouds covering the sun. But I kept crossing my fingers (and saying small prayers 😅) that the sun would peek through by the time we started shooting. And just like that, the sun made an appearance, and we got some BEAUTIFUL shots of Lory and her amazing family!

Lory, you guys are such a blast and I’m so thankful for having such awesome clients like you! I wish you the best with the new addition to your family!

Big Hugs and Lots of Love,
