Y’all this is my baby sister, Leah!! Looking at this blog I kind of want to cry! I mean look how stunning she is! She’s glowing and any day now she’s going to become a mom. It seems like she’s been pregnant forever and yet so slow at the same time. Today, May 25th is her due date. Their baby girl will be here any day now and I can’t wait to be her Auntie. My heart is so happy for Leah and Brannon I just can’t take it. Leah has always been such an amazing Aunt to my daughter Ally. She’s seriously a natural. Her and Brannon are going to be such great parents. Looking forward to them joining the Parent Club.
We photographed Leah and Brannon’s Spring Maternity Session in Winchester at the Virginia State Arboretum. I love that the arboretum has so much to offer. Everything from open fields, trees, to a really neat building when you enter. Here are a few favorites from Leah and Brannon’s Spring Maternity Session in Winchester, Virginia. Be on the look out for their newborn portraits! Can’t wait to photograph their baby in my studio and capture lifestyle portraits.
