Hughes Maternity to Lifestyle Newborn Session

Hearing the news that you’re pregnant, to those first flutters of baby moving inside your tummy, to finally getting to hold that sweet little baby you prayed for in your arms, it truly is the best feeling in the world!

I met up with the Hughes in February to capture all the love for each other and this new life in those final stages of their pregnancy. We photographed their session around Dawson Lake in Moraine View State Park located just outside of LeRoy, IL.

On this day in particular it was a touch windy, but warmer than the day prior. The only conflict with a maternity session is we don’t have a lot of time to reschedule because babies do come on their own time! I recommend scheduling your maternity session between 32-36 weeks so we have a little wiggle room if needed. At this point in your pregnancy your baby bump will be showing and your still able to get around.

A few short months later and Baby Hughes arrived…and mom and dad have been loving her and the good life ever since! I offer two types of sessions, lifestyle and wrapped newborn session in my studio located in Downs. Janae and Matthew selected the lifestyle newborn session in their home to capture all the cuteness they had put into decorating her nursery, along with capture them in the moments.

Welcome Baby Roma…you are so greatly loved!!
