Baton Rouge Family Photography Session

There is so much backstory to this girl in this shoot but it's more than a blog post amount so I am going to give you the super condensed version... There is probably no amount of words to truly capture this couple's essence. Especially the gal pictured... Mollie... 

Never met a nicer girl in the entire world (and I have been to 11 countries). Genuine, sheer, beautiful authenticity. Yep, that would summarize that Mollie girl quite well and a very, very, close second would be the most remarkable amount of pure, strange awkwardness that she can produce in an given instant. In the funniest way possible, of course.

See, look at her! You would never think such mischievousness could come from such a sweet face! Well, don't be fooled. This little lady is the best practical jokester known to man. She is without a doubt one of the funniest people I know. And to top it off, she is producing ANOTHER human in which will be equally as awesome in wit, pranks and goodness!

((Baby Jackson))

Jackson being his first name and not his last, of course. Due at the end of February!

Jeff, her hubs, and her wanted to capture baby Jackson's moments before his debut into the world. Mollie choose two of her most favorite spots in Baton Rouge and showed that baby off! The neighborhood she grew up in was her first choice- Oakbrook, with all it's glorious fall foliage to shoot and lovely lakes with cypress all around. The second spot was Perkins Rowe, her favorite place to hang out when she's back in town from Texas, where she now resides, mainly because of the Starbucks there I presume.

Love you as big as the sky!

the Gallups. 

Am I the only one that loves a Maternity Session? This little family, being close friends, allows me to use my creative side! We started in our low light bedroom to try to capture some moody images of baby and Bailey. 

Next spot was our cozy little office with my beloved bookshelf. Ryan did give me many a great tips on posing options. A hidden talent if I do say so myself. 

Being that it was a sweltering Sunday, we hit the outdoors pretty darn early to try and beat the heat. I think the shots came out pretty dreamy. 

Happy Almost Baby Time, Gallups!
