Nikki shines from within. Her eyes are alive and her smile is wide. She really knows how to work it for the camera, too. Nikki was a bride whose wedding I photographed about a year and-a-half ago and she is still one of my favorite brides. Her husband, Joe came along for part of the maternity session for some wonderful husband/wife/baby in-the-belly shots. We had to do a shot with Joe grabbing Nikki’s butt because we have a great one like it from their engagement session before they were married.

I am so pleased by these photographs. It makes me want to offer a maternity through baby’s first year package. I think I will!

Nikki and Joe had their baby, Hope, on February 19th (if I remember correctly) and I’m sure she’s a beauty with such great looking parents.

When do I get to see and photograph that little baby, Nikki? I am so happy for you.
