I usually don’t shoot with studio setups but when Helene asked me to take some maternity portraits for her, I was excited to finally make use of the studio lights I bought earlier this year…all thanks to my husband’s overtime paycheck My sister, Phuong, assisted me with today’s shoot and between the both of us, we got some fabulous shots!

Helene & Randy are expecting their first baby this August! They are the most adorable young couple I’ve had the pleasure of photographing and their baby is going to be gorgeous! The sex of the baby will be a surprise to the parents-to-be but Helene thinks it’s going to be a boy. Either way, I wish them both all the best and hope to maybe one day photograph the little one

Here’s a sneak peek at some of today’s maternity session. Thank-you Helene & Randy for allowing us to capture the beauty of your pregnancy!

The baby will be born under the sign of the Leo!

Helene & Randy had this great painting above their couch that made for a great backdrop! Yes, we made a pregnant woman stand on a sofa but it was sturdy and low to the ground

And here are some great shots from my sister Phuong!
