I had the priviledge of photographing my beautiful friend Debbie before her little one’s debut! My goodness, she is glowing and gorgeous and *almost* made me immediately want to have another. I think pregnant women are beautiful and these photos are proof. Definite proof. It was a fun session. We almost had to cancel due to extreme smoke in the area from wildfires that are burning inland. She agreed to go ahead with it, like a trooper. As the smoke was beginning to clear, the mosquitos decided to show up. Armies of mosquitos. Sorry Deb! Thank you a million times over for such a fun session. We need to get together more often, I’ve decided. I absolutely cannot wait until your little peanut arrives. You and Lahka are going to be such wonderful loving parents. Congratulations! Love you and enjoy your sneak peak!
