boone baby bump // galveston maternity
Wednesday, February 15, 2012 at 10:51AM Being a photographer, I get to be a part of some pretty intimate chapters and moments of people's lives. It used to frighten me a little, stress me out some, but now I really like it. I love that I get to tag along with two people through their time as an engaged couple in anticipation of their wedding day. That I get to be one of the first people to see those first moments as husband and wife. It kind of blows my mind actually. I've also had the honor of being in the room as new life takes it's first breath. I've captured the look on a mother's face as she sees her child for the first time. That's good stuff. Crazy good. And I'm privileged to have a small part in it all.
Sometimes things work out perfectly and it's a dear friend who wants to share those chapters and moments with you. Lindsey is one of those dear friends and when she asked if I would take some shots of her while she carries her first child I about busted from excitement. She and her hubs lived in Galveston for their first few years of marriage before relocating to the east coast for his residency. Sometimes beach pictures can be full on cheese but since there's such a rich history here for these two I knew it was going to be a perfect spot. Lindsey simply relaxed and breathed in the heavy, soaked air of her former home. She seems so at peace in these shots. I love that I got to see that.
Congrats, you two. I'm pretty pumped to meet this kid.
