Today, we did an informal shoot with Heather and Chris, soon-to-be parents. This is only our second maternity session, but I think we got a few great photos, including the ones below. I like this one because Heather is literally glowing — you know, like expectant mothers are supposed to.

Congratulations to Heather and Chris. Oh, and the gallery is password protected, so if you know Heather, ask her for the magic word. Check out the gallery.

First of all: congratulations to Lisa and Chase on the upcoming birth of their baby boy, Tripp. I was honored to be able to spend a couple of hours with them yesterday to snap a few maternity shots of Lisa and to capture a few lovey shots of them both.

They were great subjects, and I’m very pleased with the portraits we came away with: about 75 were three-or-more stars! We used a location in Warner Robins in the late afternoon to get some dramatic lighting effects. Combine the sun with a strobe in a beautiful setting, and magic is the result.

Enjoy your photos, guys. And best wishes. Also, a special thanks to Autumn for being such a solid assistant. Lisa and Chase’s gallery is password protected, but I posted a sample gallery on Flickr. Enjoy.
