Baby Bump + Family

So, I wasn’t planning on doing maternity pictures with this last pregnancy. I mean, I was flying by the seat of my pants and taking life one day at a time. And planning a maternity shoot sounded exhausting to my pregnant self (dramatic much? 😉 )But then my cute friend Emily said to me, “What other time in your life will you have the perfect excuse to get dolled up and look like a princess?!” SOLD. Count me in. And especially since I knew this sweet bump was my last, a photo would literally include all my 4 babies. I’ll be totally honest, I also knew I would NEVER miss this pregnancy belly (HA!) but I really wanted it documented since the belly would be forever expired. HALLELUJAH! Just give me all the babies.

I fell in love with this beautiful gown! A tulle dress, fitted lace top, and a dreamy button enclosure down the center of the bust. It was perfect! My talented friend Emily over at Olive Rae Handmade made this preserved leaf and rose flower crown. The preserved roses still feel cool to the touch. It’s stunning! And Kelli had a beautiful location in downtown Dallas to shoot these photos. I am in LOVE with her beautiful photo style. I’m not surprised at all that she created gorgeous work! Eeeek!! Now which ones do I blow up to cover my walls?!
