Glowing | Charlotte, NC Maternity Photographer
September 22, 2009Krystle is one of my newest best friends, and probably every photographers dream client. Not only did she strip down to her skivvies to show off her gorgeous belly, or jump into a creek with her two year old son, but she requested it. We ran around in circles trying to get these sessions to happen, but a certain little someone who wasn’t even born yet, had his own agenda :P Krystle had a very tiring and trying pregnancy, in and out of the hospital time and time again. The DAY before she was scheduled to be induced, she went into labor at 4am. On her way to the hospital, Jaxon decided right then was the time he wanted to make his grand entrance, and that he did. She had her little sweety in the front seat of her Honda Pilot on the side of the road at around 4:20am! I was supposed to photograph her birth, but uh, once again, Jaxon had his own agenda, lol. Hopefully, I’ll be photographing HIM soon! But until then, check out this beeeeeautiful momma! She is one that made pregnancy look stylish :)


The 4th picture down on the left shows a sculpt of a newborn. That was done by a lady that lives nearby. She is so talented. She can take a 3d/4d ultrasound and make your baby. We were so excited to see if Jaxon looked like his sculpt, and he does!!! Check her out at http://www.freewebs.com/newbornbliss/ .
