Maternity Photos

Justin has been so amazing during this pregnancy! He has been an absolute trooper when it comes to all the appointments, classes, research and preparation that comes along with this new adventure of getting ready for a baby. He has been my sidekick and done everything that I've asked him to do and most with a smile on his face. However, these maternity photos were the one task that he had been loathing and that had been causing him the most angst. Anyone who knows Justin, knows that he hates getting his photo taken and especially in a family photo shoot such as this. I've told him numerous times that he married the wrong women, because I absolutely LOVE photos!! He had been dreading the picture day for 2 months, but promised that he would show up and try not to look too miserable. :-)

I had scheduled it for a Sunday after a Steelers game and luckily for me, we won that day!! Therefore, it was the best scenario possible. Justin was both in a good mood from the win and a little buzzed from drinking during the game. Our photographer was amazing and was able to quickly and efficiently get photos of all the poses I wanted. Although schedule for up to a 2 hour shoot, we were done in just under an hour!! I was pleased and Justin was ecstatic. After all of the moaning and groaning that he had done, he ended up admitting that it wasn't that bad after all and that he had actually enjoyed himself. It helped that our photographer had agreed to photograph us with our first child, the furry one. ;-) Casey took direction well and did a fantastic job throughout the shoot. He made the experience so much more enjoyable for both of us!

These are only a few of the photos that we received from the shoot, but they are some of my favorites!! I hope that you all like them too!! Thanks again to Justin for agreeing to participate in the photo shoot! It really meant a lot to me!
