{ Deb + Tom + Ella :: Belly + Lifestyle }

Tuesday, February 10, 2009

Every now and then I have a session that goes just perfect, better even than expected. Deb’s maternity session was one of these – she originally called me to take belly shots, and confessed that she was feeling a little less than glamorous. Well, as you’ll see, by the time of our session, she was looking more than glamorous! She is positively glowing, and looks absolutely gorgeous! Her husband Tom joined in for some portraits, and little cutie-pie Ella just about stole the show!
