Keswick Vineyards Maternity Session | Strom and Regan

I think that the love of a mother is one of the most beautiful and fascinating and pure types of love. It’s incredible to watch a mother grow more in love with her precious little one as her belly grows and the date of her baby’s arrival gets closer and closer!  Although this is a step away from the normal shoots I do, it’s so amazing to watch my friends become mothers and these photos of this growing little family are easily some of my new favorites…I love photographing love and it is so easy to capture between a couple as they are awaiting the arrival of a new baby! It was such an incredible honor for me to photograph this precious time in Strom and Regan’s lives…and all of the joy and anticipation and nervous excitement that go along with it. Keswick Vineyards made the perfect backdrop and we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful morning!

Their first child is due to arrive in the fall and he is already so blessed to have them as parents. Regan and Strom are kind, sweet, gentle and full of grace…I just know that they are going to be incredible parents and I can’t wait for this next chapter of their lives to unfold!

Thank you Regan for asking me to be a small part of this very special season of your life! I am so overjoyed for you two and can’t wait for your baby boy to get here!
