Maternity Portraits for Mike & Mary

Getting to know this couple has been just the best new client experience. Mary is so sweet and humble with the cutest faint accent and Mike is just a down right make-you-pee-your-pants kind of hilarious. Mike is in the military so these two soon to be parents tend to move around a lot. During this season of their life they are living in the desert. It was important to Mary that we somehow show that in her maternity photos. I spent a couple days exploring around Kern County and beyond trying to find the perfect spot. Originally we were just going to head to an area with a grove of Joshua trees, but then I showed her photos of Red Rock Canyon State Park and it was kind of a no brainer thats where we had to have our baby bump photo shoot. At 33 weeks pregnant, Mary looks absolutely amazing! I had so much fun exploring within the canyons and creating some of the best maternity photos that I am so proud of. Enjoy!
