St. Louis Maternity Photographer | Precious Cargo!

March 28, 2011

What a difference a day can make! Anyone who knows St. Louis understands that the weather can change in an instant and that has certainly been the case lately. Less than a week ago it was almost 80 degrees and then Saturday we had about five inches of snow. The very next day, all the snow was gone and unfortunately so were the pretty pink flowers on some of the local trees. So sad as I was wanting to incorporate those Spring trees in this couple’s maternity session yesterday. No worries though…we found Spring around us in other ways. These weeping willows were fresh and green for us! We even found an area with a rows of white flowered trees! Sure it was quite chilly, but that didn’t seem to phase this mom-to-be in the slightest. She even changed into tank tops and bared her belly for some shots! Her husband was such the gentleman by warming her up with his coat and my blanket. After all, as he pointed out, there’s precious cargo there! I agree! These two couldn’t be more loving and sweet towards each other. You’d think they were still honeymooners instead of being together since college undergrad. Their baby is going to be one lucky girl for sure. Congrats and I can’t wait to meet the lil’ one! Until then…enjoy the sneak peek.

    Thanks again, Yvonne! We had a great time and you did such an amazing job with the photos – you’d never know from that pretty spring background just how cold it really was out there!

      Kirsten ~ You are so welcome. It was a lot of fun! I’m glad it was a good experience for the two of you as well. ;) You were such a trooper in the cold. You’re right…you’d never know it was COLD out there by looking at your portraits. Can’t wait for you to see the rest and to meet your lil’ one when she arrives.
