Ramineh's Maternity Session

There are three people that I used as models when I first started taking pictures that really influenced me to pursue photography as a career. All three of these girls Monica, Ramineh and Sarah (my sister) are absolutely gorgeous. They let me dress them up and take silly pictures with my little Minolta 35mm camera that my brother bought me as a Christmas present. Having moved 800 miles away from my hometown in Texas, I was pleasantly surprised when Ramineh asked me to take her maternity pictures. Ramineh is one of the most beautiful people I know. She has a passionate personality that you don't see in many people. She finds things that she loves and loves them with all of herself. I know she will make a wonderful mother and will love Zephyr with all of her heart.

Pregnant women are so beautiful. There is just something so sweet and delicate about them.

I generally don't like to post two pictures of the same pose on my blog, but I loved these two so much that I honestly couldn't pick between the two.

Maternity pictures are a celebration of a woman's changing body. Feel free to show off how beautiful your body is when you are pregnant!

This next one is an image that my sister Sarah (always so helpful) picked out for this shoot. She found it on Pinterest. I absolutely love the way it turned out.

This is James the love of Ramineh's life. They are so cute together.

I love a couple that can laugh. So cute!!

Thanks again Ramineh! I can't wait to take Zephyr's pictures.
