I always ask moms what they want to walk away from their session with. This mom told me, "I want to look back at these pictures and remember this as a joyful time since this year has been rough." I thought about that and really let it sink in as I edited their session. What a unique thing I can do as a photographer. Sure, the lead up to this session was stressful and I think we ended up on Plan D, but I found myself smiling as I went through their pictures. I'm sure this is not how she imagined her pregnancy would be, but at least for one evening, we could forget about everything else and just celebrate their growing family.
