I stood up late last night (hum maybe technically early this morning since it was 5am) working on this recent maternity session. Last week I met with K to talk about her session and we decided to head on over to Sonoma Horticulteral Nursery this last Friday. It was a beautiful day and I just love the photos from that day. I have been to nursery 3 times now and I still can’t get over how much the temperature changes in there. Its quite lovely.
We started in the Yellow Garden near the gazebo and got this beautiful image which to me feels like I was peeking in through the garden to get this tender moment.

For the most part this baby girl slept through our session but woke up for a tiny bit when K was sitting out in the sun.

I love this wheel bench. We got quite the giggle taking this photo. I should have taken a shot of what was happening behind the scenes.

And my favorite photo taken just before we left.

I had a great time with the first time mommy and am looking forward to having our second session soon




What a huge belly!!
I love them!
Kathy is such a beautiful Momma.
Your photos really capture that!
Great photos and a very lovely location – you captured the expectant joy in every frame!
