Albuquerque, NM Summer Maternity Photo Session at The Alameda Open Space

One of my favorite sessions (I know... I have a lot of them!) is Maternity! There is just something so magical about a woman carrying a growing child! 

Some of you may know that when I was pregnant with my daughter (who is now three), I never had any maternity pictures taken, and it is now one of my biggest regrets... EVER! My excuse was always that I was huge and didn't "feel" pretty. While that may have been how I felt at the time, I didn't stop to think about what I would be missing out on and what I would later regret. 

I want to stress to all you moms-to-be... YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL! And believe me, you will want to look back at your photos of your growing belly one day and admire and reminisce on this magical time in your life!

This sweet momma-to-be was just about 39 weeks pregnant with her second and she looked just as beautiful as ever! And big sister-to-be was so excited to have a baby brother on the way! Alameda Open Space was the perfect location for this Maternity Photo Session. 

ENJOY!

Old Town Senior Session | Albuquerque Senior Photographer

I was contacted by this sweet girl who wanted a unique and southwest look to her senior portraits. I immediately thought of Albuquerque's Old town area... and it did not disappoint! This wonderful area has lots of great nooks and crannies that provide many different spaces and textures. 

This session was so much fun and I just love how these turned out!

ENJOY!
