Maternity Shoot

I never had any desire to do any pregnancy photos. However, I was researching newborn photographers here in Abu Dhabi, when I can across some photos of a pregnant women in the desert and it looked beyond amazing! So, I figured why not do these photos since I will never have this beautiful scenery again. The photographer was great, originally from Texas, and I loved the pictures that we got. Although I was 32 weeks, my bump was not as big as it is now, but I chose to do it then when Jason was in town and could join me. It ended up being super chilly that morning, as we met to do the pictures at 6:30am to catch the sun rise. But we warmed up fast with all the hiking through the sand and as the sun came out. I am now so happy that we have these memories of our little one before she is born and look forward to her newborn shoot with this same photographer (www.melissacrownphotography.com)
