Gilbert, AZ {Maternity Photography}
Published on July 25, 2017
I always get excited, nervous and anxious before any photography session especially when you don't know if the weather is going to cooperate. A huge storm rolled in right before this maternity session. We planned on the Salt River and when I hopped in my car to go scout a new area out there, I saw really dark clouds coming from the NE where I was headed. I was torn between chancing it or finding a back up plan. My client really wanted water for her baby bump photos. After driving around for an hour and four phone calls with four different location changes, I decided we should shoot in the East Valley, Gilbert, AZ. They were coming from Scottsdale, AZ and the radar showed the storm was heading out my way so it made more sense to have them jam out near Chandler, AZ and try to beat the storm. She just had her hair and makeup done so the shoot had to go own. Plus her sister flew in from Georgia. As I brainstormed places and racked my brain about where there is water she could actually get into, it dawned on me. I took her to one of my favorite spots here in the East Valley. duh! It's no secret that I am a sucker for back lighting and sunflares so when the weather said partly cloudy I was jazzed. That's perfect photography lighting in my opinion. When the storm rolled in my ideas of sunflares and backlighting began to fizzle and I have to admit her sister and I were getting sad. BUT guess what?? We had the most amazing maternity session! Kasey rocked this session and the weather was perfect! For me, there is nothing better than to watch my beautiful clients be themselves while I capture pure oragnic and REAL candid moments like these. Winnig! Thank you Kasey and Krissy! and Thank you Jesus for always making things workout.
