Meet Juan, Michelle, and the tummy.

I only photographed this two days ago and I rushed to put this up because I heard…
that Michelle’s having her baby today!!! I thought it might be kind of weird to put up maternity photos long after the baby is out.
But I mean, is it hard to believe that the baby just came out today? Look at her! It looks like she stuck a VW beetle to her stomach. She’s huge!!! I’ve done a number of maternity sessions now, but it never ceases to amaze me (and sometimes scare me) on how big stomachs can get! Michelle’s innie-belly button is now an outie (did I spell that right?) ! My mind still thinks her stomach is fake, even though i’ve poked it (gently) a few times. Congratulations to Juan and Michelle! Their baby girls name is Elena Grace 🙂
It’s such an amazing experience to be with a couple before they get married, when they get married, during their pregnancy, and..I’m certain I’ll be a part of their lives when the baby comes out. What other job allows one to do this? I love my job 🙂
