Laura and I have been friends since we were 11 years old… now she is ready to have a little one of her own any day. Laura and Eric are the perfect pair… he is kind, patient, and loves her to no end. I have seen Laura fall in love with Eric and become such an amazing woman. I have no doubt that they will be great parents. Little Aria is going to be one lucky { not to mention, beautiful} little girl.
When Laura told me that they weren’t planning on doing maternity pictures, I offered to do them for her. I am by no means a pro photographer… but we had a lot of fun {even when it started raining!} and I’m really happy with how their pictures turned out.
The LA County Arboretum was our backdrop for the day.
I love the big pink bow.

Baby shoes are the cutest. Ever.
I had them bring some parenting books. Eric’s book is for Dad’s-to-be and was cracking us up. {Especially the part that told guys to lie when their preggo wife asks if she looks fat. great advice. }
My favorite.
Or, maybe this is my favorite.
Laura has been craving fresh brewed unsweetened iced tea so I made some to document her cravings. Plus cookies, just in case the baby {and by baby, I mean me} was needing a cookie.
I made this bunting that will later be up in Aria’s nursery.

Laura, you are beautiful!
Thank you both for letting me take these for you. I can’t wait to meet Aria and spoil her like crazy.
I had so much fun styling this shoot for them and can’t wait to share more Aria pictures when she gets here in just a few weeks!
What a wonderful day it was thanks to you Jess! Aria is so lucky to have an auntie like you and we cannot wait for her arrival. You have so much talent and we couldnt be more grateful for these pictures! LOVE YOU!
Your work is amazing! Truly enjoyed your professionalism and originality of fresh ideas. We defiantly will be recommending to others for events!
