Hey friends! I’m so excited to finally share with you our Maternity Session photos that were taken by my dear friend Maria from Ria Photography, a Kansas City based wedding and portrait photographer! Yay!!! These photos were taken back at the end of October, when I was about 7 months pregnant. My belly was big, but not TOO big and I wasn’t swollen yet like I kind of am now so it was perfect. The fall weather was also unseasonably warm back then which made it great for wearing dresses. 🙂
I am seriously in LOVE with them. I haven’t been able to stop staring at them since I got them. I’m so happy that we got to capture this sweet moment of our growing family and I can’t wait to share these photos with our little one once he’s born. 🙂 In case you were wondering, the little moustache booties are from Pleasantly Plump Knits, my lace dress is from Forever 21 and my purple floral dress is from Motherhood Maternity. Once again, I wanted to say THANK YOU to Ria Photography for taking these photos for us!
GAH SO GORGEOUS!!! 🙂 🙂 What beautiful beautiful photographs of a beautiful family!
Love them!! Totally wish I could have had that dress for my shoot, but with no boots to wear it wasn’t worth it. Darn fat chubby giant preggo feet!! 🙂
gah – i can’t get over how good you look! these pictures are soooo presh – and i am super super super super (100x) giddy excited for you and marv!!! wish i could be there!! 🙂

Oh, these are such stunning photos…you are absolutely glowing!! These are great keepsake photos for sure 🙂
Beautiful pictures 🙂 my fave is the silhouette against the trees!
oh my gosh….this is the cutest maternity session I’ve ever seen!! absolutely beautiful photos!! gets me soo excited for your bundle of joy that is on the way!! I really like this style of photography…it’s more of like engagement photos…but I think it shows alot more personality..and a story compared to just the in studio black and white maternity photos.
great!

I just found your blog and love it! Oh, these photos are amazing. I’m currently 19 weeks pregnant, so you’ve inspired me to do this later with my hubby. What a great memory. I’m trying to figure out what to do with my blog since I do outfit posts and I love looking at yours. Look forward to following your adventures.
Red Soles and Red Wine
Ahhhhh!!!! The first one with the tiny pair of shoes absolutely melted my heart! How do you choose which ones to frame when they are all so precious and GORGEOUS? These need to be published in a magazine!!

Pretty pics. I really like the one where the camera is looking down on Marvin touching your belly in the fall colored shirt. BEAUTIFUL. That’s a pic you should put up in your house somewhere.
Oh my gosh, I love these pictures!!!! You look gorgeous and I love it all!!!
I love love LOVE all these photos!!!
These are beautiful Sandy! They brought tears to my eyes, happy ones I can assure you. When I was pregnant, I hated how I look, I guess I wasn’t comfortable with my body back then so I didn’t take any pictures with my belly. I regret it so much now. Looking at these really takes me back to my 2 pregnancies. Can’t wait to see the beautiful baby boy!
these are so stunning and heartwarming. i’m ooh’ing and ahhh’ing over all of them. that one of the two of you in the dark with your belly is a favorite for sure.
Beautiful, Sandy!! I love the last ones of you with the frame – they are totally adorable!
Your hair and makeup look AMAZING! Such cute photos!
Oh my gosh. These are possibly the cutest things I’ve seen! You guys are a beautiful couple and I can only imagine your baby will just add to that.
