Having a baby is such a beautiful part of life. The experiences of pregnancy are like no other. Jina and her husband are having their third baby! They have a beautiful family. So when Jina’s third pregnancy was little ways along, we contacted her about doing a classy maternity session. We met Jina a long time ago at one of our Photography Workshops. We became close friends and are extremely proud to say she is now an amazing, very successful portrait photographer! But even the best photographers in the world cannot take their own maternity pictures! We headed to the Jina’s home where they have a lovely nursery all ready for their newest arrival! The room had a gorgeous west facing window, which means perfect window lighting, a photographers dream! Because this is their third child, we wanted to include her other two girls who are excited to have a new baby sister!! So we set up mom and the girls and took some adorable family-to-be pictures.  I had a lot of ideas going into this session, I wanted to keep the light simple and just produce classy maternity pictures. The lighting in Jina’s bedroom was tricky, but I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome! The light had the ability to be dramatic, but also very graceful at the same time! We got so absorbed in taking pictures inside Jina’s home, that we almost ran out of sunlight! The plan was to also take some family pictures with Jina’s mom outdoors, so we hurried to our pre-determined location! The sun was already behind the trees, but that won’t stop us! We all know where Jina gets her gorgeous looks from-mom! They look so much alike! We hope you enjoy these images from Jina’s Maternity Session! We had a blast working with you again Jina, keep us posted on baby three!

\ EDIT // A big congratulations to Jina and her family! Gianna Claire was born two days ago, healthy and happy the family is doing great!

Congratulations!!
