Oh, Baby: Kelly & Brett’s Music-laced Maternity Session

April 1, 2010

When Kelly contacted us about a maternity session, we knew it would be a good one. She is so bubbly, positive, and upbeat, and therefore perfectly matched for Ashley and I! She sent us dozens of compliments on past maternity sessions we’ve shot, and we were more than happy about getting the chance to help she and Brett celebrate the impending birth of their daughter, Ivy. Since Ivy is due on July 4, we haven’t met her yet, but we’re looking forward to it!

Both Kelly and Brett are seriously music-savvy, and definitely wanted to incorporate this interest into their session. This combined with their flirty and unique nature helped produce photos that we think are definitely true to them–just the way we like it to be!

I think saying we were excited to see these shirts when Kelly and Brett walked out of the restroom is an understatement! I think they’re the coolest thing, and definitely added personal flair to the maternity session! We told K&B that they had to make one for Ivy and bring her back to get a family shot. The family that rocks together stays together!

Celebrating The Wonder of New Life | Alice & Donald’s Maternity Session

December 30, 2009

Alice, Donald, and nine-year-old Calvin might just be one of the more quirky, eclectic, and overall delightful and cool families we have worked with! Alice and Donald are expecting their as-yet-unnamed son in March. Ashley and I are more than excited that we not only shot their maternity session, but that the two have also asked us to be present at (and shoot, obviously) the birth of their baby!

This session was shot, (as most of our family sessions are), at the home of the family. Everything–from the yellow paint outside to the flaming red kitchen and black-and-white floor tile–about this house sings love! It was impossible for us to not be completely giddy the entire time we were shooting. The three are also incredibly laid back, which always makes for a pleasant session.

Aren’t ultrasound photos brilliant? I can remember our first ultrasound so clearly, and now we have a nine month old! Time truly flies.

One of Calvin’s jobs is the dishes, hence the wash cloth! :)

Do you recognize someone? John’s daughter (from the famed and beautiful Jane and John!), and John himself, are friends with the family.

These three snuggle in bed on the weekends and watch movies together, so we all decided this would, naturally, make for great photos.

We still have a few more sessions and a wedding from 2009 to blog about, so keep your eyes peeled! As always, thanks for visiting!

Waiting for Tyair | White Rabbit Studios | Maternity Photography

July 1, 2009

Some of the most rewarding sessions either Ashley or I have shot have been with people we know. I met Ateneh when we both worked at a local Ruby Tuesday’s together–she was the hostess, I was a waitress, and we got to know each other that way. We hadn’t spoken frequently since I quit the job in December 2006, but when I moved back to Huntsville last month and discovered she was pregnant, I knew that we had to document the pregnancy!

Luckily, she was in week 35 when I met up with her and her fiancee, Bobby, to shoot the photos. Their son, Tyair, should be here by July 27. We can’t wait to meet him!

Thanks, Ateneh and Bobby! You two are truly beautiful, and I have no doubt that Tyair is going to be one handsome fella!

EDIT: Tyair was born on July 19 at 9:52 AM! He’s totally healthy and perfectly beautiful. Congrats to you three, and we hope to have the pleasure of shooting you again! :)
