I have been waiting to shoot mandy and nicks maternity session since mandy told me and my mom in APRIL that they were expecting. I knew i wanted to do it in the fall and just hoped that belly bump would pop out in time. I knew they’d be fun to photograph as they are beautiful people and their engagement session was one of my favorites ever. Yes they just got married last year and are expecting baby Hoyng before their first anniversary, they are on the fast track! I so cannot wait to meet this newest niece or nephew of mine (they aren’t finding out and its killing auntie jenny!). The little peanut will be here in december so be sure to check back for images of the newest member of our family around the holidays!
Yeah, she’s pretty..

they came up to columbus to spend the weekend with us so we split one long session into two shorter sessions to take advantage of both the evening light at one park and the morning light at another park.. these early morning images are my faves.can’t really even tell she’s preggo here, it barely qualifies as a maternity shot. But they wanted an image with their first baby boy, Jackson. He was such a good boy this morning, so cooperative!this is my fave, fave, FAVE!me and my sissy.. we are night and day in the looks department but i love her so. as you can see i’m WAY excited for this baby!

how they met, as told my mandy: We met at Nicks ten year high school reunion in Beavercreek. We didn’t know each other in high school….Didn’t exchange numbers, nick just high fived me as I was the bartender at this event.
One week later, me and my friend Heidi were out at a bar in Cincinnati after a miller lite bengals promo.. And ran into Nick at a bar. Nick didn’t let me leave the bar without exchanging numbers and we’ve been talking ever since..
