Jaqai contacted me when his wife was in the first trimester to ask about maternity session information. He knew he wanted to surprise her with a session and was gathering up information before booking. Weeks went by, and then months...so I put Jaqai's email in my archived folder and assumed I wouldn't hear from him again.
I was wrong. An email from Jaqai popped up in my inbox asking if he could book a session for his wife. He apologized for the last minute notice and explained they'd been pretty busy renovating their home and getting ready for their baby. I had last minute availability, so I had them come into the studio for a maternity fitting a few days before their session. Mandy chose to wear one of our maternity wraps and then a form fitting maternity gown which looked amazing on her. Jaqai initially insisted that he didn't want to be in any of the photographs, but with a little sweet talking, I convinced him to be in a few. At the very least, if your husband only wants to be in ONE photo, we can shoot the classic partners cradling the belly with no faces shown.
We had a lot of fun during their session, and they went on to welcome a beautiful baby boy who I had the pleasure of meeting when they came by the studio to pick up their maternity print.
