Olivia B. Maternity Session | Glencairn Garden

I am so, so, so, so, so excited to be an auntie again!  There’s nothing quite like loving a child like your own, spending time with them, spoiling them rotten and then at the end of the day being able to send them back home with mom and dad.  Those are the perks of being an aunt and I enjoy it tremendously.  While I’m only halfway joking, I am seriously excited to welcome baby Landon into our family.  I fell in love with my niece Alycia immediately and I know it’ll be love at first sight as soon as he arrives as well.

It was definitely a privilege for me to capture such a special moment in my sister’s life.  Being a mom is a new adventure for her and her fiancee Brandon and I’m so thankful that I get to play even a small role during this exciting time shooting her maternity photos.

Olivia’s session took place towards the end of April while Glencairn Garden was filled with lots of gorgeous blooms and greenery.  She opted to do two outfits (the first being a cute off-white dress that played beautifully against all of the pastel flowers), but her second outfit, this retro denim-like jumpsuit with a red bandanna, sneakers and the pop of red on her lips was absolute perfection!  Which is why I opted to focus on this look for my blog post.

We made our way through the park stopping to recreate cute retro-style poses and of course focusing on her adorable baby bump.  When Landon is old enough to understand and fully grasp all of this I hope he looks back at these photos (his first official gig as my model and trust me he’s got many years ahead of him whether he likes it or not) with fond memories and sees the love his mother already has in her eyes for him.
