Kristen’s Maternity Session

Kristen and Jason are expecting their first child in a few short weeks, and asked me to take some pictures of them before their daughter's arrival. The nursery was totally awesome! The walls were painted a bright salmon color, and the room was decorated with white furniture and brown accents… it was the PERFECT place to use as a backdrop. (The wall was my favorite!!!) Kristen went all-out for this session, with makeup artist Marci Star on hand to not only apply makeup to Kristen's face, but also to airbrush her belly. The results were amazing, as you can see. 

Here are a few favorites of mine from the session:

As professional as it gets. Some of them look straight out of a magazine. Are you going to submit them to a baby/healthcare magazine? Not only are the pictures great, but you can feel them. Great job.

[...] few months ago I had the pleasure of working with Marci Star while doing an in-home maternity shoot for Kristen and her husband, Jason.   Marci was hired by Kristen to be her makeup artist for the photoshoot, and Marci did a [...]
