Tolbert Family | Maternity

I cannot believe that we are here again. This session was so monumental because I first met Joe and Mandy at their first maternity session. He was the new preacher in town which meant we are all complete strangers to each other. I photographed their little girl, Lainey Kate since birth. This meant that I would see Joe and Mandy quite a bit throughout the first year of her life. We became great friends and now, I stop by for visits when I’m in town to catch up. I often joked with Mandy about having another one for me to photograph. A week or two went by and I stopped by for a visit and she nonchalantly gave me the exciting news. I think I spent the next 30 minutes squealing like a little girl. Fast forward 7 or so months and here we are at her maternity session. I cannot wait to meet this little boy and photograph him every couple of months!

Lainey Kate did so well! She’s excited to meet her little brother!

I pray that I look half as good as Mandy does at 8.5 months prego if I ever have a baby!

Love this smile!

Gorgeous.
