Three’s a Family | Northwest Arkansas Family Photographer
Posted on October 13, 2009
My friend and local photographer, Melissa, decided that we were going to exchange family portraits this year. I was flip-flopping around trying to decide if I should do a session before the baby and show off the belly or after the baby. Well, our schedules were so hard to mesh together that reality decided for me- there is no way I’m getting in front of the camera this swollen. Sure, if it was just baby weight, I’d get over it and take one for the team and take some photos, but this isn’t baby weight. It is waking up in the morning and not being able to see because your eyes are so puffy type swelling. No worries, the doctor is making sure that everything is okay. Believe me, I’ve been down the preeclampsia road once before and would not like to return.
So, anyway, Melissa and I decided to postpone my family’s session until the Spring while going ahead and getting some fun fall photos of her and her boys. Despite neither of the guys feeling in tip-top shape (we all know how men tend to become babies when they are sick
), I think we got some great photos! Yay!
Here are just a few that I’ve snagged for the sneak peek.
My fave so far.
Since they hadn’t had couple photos taken since they were married, we spent a little time focusing on on just the two of them. Awwww.
I can’t wait for my session come spring! It’ll be so fun.
