Walking hand in hand with your best friend. Your belly round with the feeling of life moving around inside of you. This is just a little of what Katie experienced with her husband Kyle at their maternity session at Thacher Park a few weeks ago.
Back in 2022, I had the absolute pleasure of capturing Katie and Kyle’s Lake George wedding at The Boathouse Restaurant! Click here to check out the blog post from their big day. Katie and I met several years ago when we both worked on the same unit at Albany Medical Center. I was so excited when she asked me to capture their wedding day. It was a gorgeous May day, on which I happened to be 34 weeks pregnant with my first baby.
Fast forward to earlier this year, and I got a text from Katie saying that her and Kyle were expecting their first baby! Aside from weddings, maternity sessions are one of my favorite type of sessions. Maybe it’s because I am a mom, but I love capturing some special photos of a huge milestone in life. Most of pregnancy is NOT glamorous, so I love helping moms look and feel beautiful at their session as they prepare to meet the baby that is moving and being formed inside of them.
Katie’s due date was not until the middle of November, but her spunky girl had other plans in mind. Just a few weeks after we captured these photos at Thacher Park, she came nice and early at 34 weeks. Despite being tiny and needing some time in the NICU, she is already such a strong girl and I can’t wait to watch her grow up into a beautiful young girl and one day a woman.
Katie and Kyle, thank you for allowing me to capture such a special time in your life. I am so excited for you as you begin this new journey as parents, and can’t wait to see your strong baby girl grow up and do great things!
