Maternity Magic

Bless my husband's heart. The man loves a lot of things, hockey, chocolate milkshakes, his truck, but taking pictures is definitely not on that list. He knows how much family photos mean to me, so he has humored me with engagement photos, wedding photos (he didn't really have a choice there), and he reluctantly agreed to take maternity photos with me. 

Our original plan was to make a trip up to Yosemite where we got married and take them at the site we had our ceremony, but the weekend we had on the books to do this, there was a gnarly snowstorm up there, and Mike thought braving that with a very pregnant wife proooobably wasn't the best idea. And as much as I was bummed, I had to agree with him. So we had to find a local photographer last minute. We connected with a local photographer, and due to rain for 2 weekends in a row, our shoot kept getting pushed back, but on the third Saturday we had our fingers crossed third times would be the charm. Our photographer, Jenny, was so understanding and flexible when we had to reschedule due to weather, which was very much appreciated. 

We pull in to Napa, and it instantly started to rain. We both got discouraged, but pulled into our meeting space, and it stopped raining thankfully! Jenny was AWESOME and found such great spots for our photos! She got so incredibly creative with locations and was super chill and easy to work with. She made us both feel comfortable, and we really enjoyed our time shooting with her-even Mike! As we were driving home (it had just started raining again, so it was perfect timing!), Mike said, "I wonder if she can do our newborn photos." So maybe he doesn't hate taking photos as much as he lets on... 

So if anyone in the Bay Area needs a local photographer, PLEASE contact Jenny Daughtry - you will NOT be disappointed! She was incredibly professional, but super easy going to work with. She edited our photos super fast and we had them within 48 hours. It was such a fun experience, and now we have these beautiful photos forever. I mean, let these photos speak for themselves. Thank you so much Jenny for capturing such a special time in our lives!
