Kirstin’s Maternity Session @ Laguna Gloria

Last week I shot Kirstin’s 8.5 month maternity portrait session at Laguna Gloria, a GREAT place for a wedding in Austin. This venue has a little of everything and is also great for bridal sessions. The grounds are beautiful with lots of shade and greenery and the inside is classic and vintage. I already post my favorite photo from the session here. Kirstin is now 1cm dialated so the waiting begins, Emma should be arriving shortly and then I can call myself a God-mother!

I’m going to be a God-mother!!

Yup, you heard right. In less than 2 weeks I will be the proud God-mother of baby Emma. Kirstin is my God-sister (I know that’s a term NO ONE seems to use but us) but she is practically my sister and I have known her since I was a baby myself…. so I am incredibly excited that her and David have chosen me to be a part of her life… FOREVER! I was really excited about this particular picture so I had to post it TONIGHT!! As you can see… I’m quite excited in general. :) More to come later on of course!
