Passion Project 1- PART 2! Rolling Hills, Maternity Gown Session Temecula Maternity Photographer

So yesterday, I posted about our milk bath maternity session. While my partner and I were DROOLING over the images we had just taken, there was another knock on the door, and a second gorgeous mama was here to get glam'd up, and taken out for an adventure in the hills!
 
   I am super lucky, that literally across the street, are breathtaking rolling hills. We had almost canceled this session, because it had been threatening rain all day- but we decided to go for it, and were so glad we did! the clouds and light literally could not have been better.

Sidenote- my editing styles are kind of all over the board with this one- i have plenty of my signature soft and airy style, but i wanted to try for some 'dark and moody' editing as well, so some of these images are kind of a hodgepodge of styles- so forgive me!

What do you think of these? Do you have some friends or co-workers who are pregnant and wanting maternity photos? If so, send them my way!!

Joie de Vivre!

Passion Project 1: Milkbath Maternity TEMECULA MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHER

I recently returned from WPPI (Wedding and  Portrait Photographers International) held in Las Vegas. I met with thousands of other photographers, learned new techniques, business management, networking, etc- it was fantastic! It was my 4th time going, and I can't wait to go again next year!
   One of the things I took home with me as a goal was to start shooting PASSION PROJECTS. A passion project gives me the opportunity to be creative, go outside my normal comfort zone, try something new, or something that Ive wanted to do, without the pressure of having a paid clients expectations. My partner and I brainstormed some things we wanted to try, and had all kinds of fun ideas! This last Saturday our first passion project baby was undertaken! It started with a breathtakingly gorgeous soon-to-be-mama, and a milk bath filled with flowers. Here are a few of my favorites from that session at my house!

 I would love to know your thoughts on these! It was such a fun creative project. As an extra tidbit of fun- here is a pullback shot of me, literally standing over Brie!

Joie de Vivre!
