DC maternity session: monnette + duc = baby

Remember Monette and Duc from just 18 months ago? It just thrills me when brides come back with the news there is a baby on the way. I consider it a greater compliment when they want me to shoot their maternity and thereafter baby sessions. At the end of the day, they know that they can trust me to take care of them and preserve their memories.
They know from me being their wedding photographer, I laugh a lot and I like to have fun, I crack jokes when appropriate and then turn around to straighten out what needs to be fixed. I follow them around and make sure they have water, food, lip gloss, powder, candy... I often even bustle their dress when it's time for them to go on the dance floor.. I am their right hand gal for the day and often in the end, when it's all over we are like old friends departing ways.. waving goodbye as I wish them safe travels on their honeymoon.

Monnette and Duc are now having a baby and I'm thrilled for them. Here are a few of my favorites from the session!

Monnette came with every sonogram picture given her, ever!!.. She is thrilled to be able to see "Luke" everyday! Duc does not see it but nods in agreement.. with a smile! They are so cute!




Cute as a button!










Good luck you two.. I can't wait to meet Mr. Luke..
