A Maternity Session for Melanie (or: “How all I can talk about is babies”)

Apr 26 at 2:22 pm

Baldwin Park | Orlando, Florida

There’s something about being around babies (and puppies, and Christian Louboutins) that sparks something inside of me. It’s instant butterflies in my stomach and daydreams of little feet (or paws, or clinking heels) tap, tap, tapping across the floor. It seems that everyone and their sister is having babies around me right now which is no good for my baby (or puppy or Christian Louboutin) fever. Have mercy. Poor Nate has to hear me talk about it all the time. (He’s a god among men, people. I’m blessed.) Disclaimer: No babies for us anytime soon. A puppy, maybe. Christian Louboutins… hopefully.

Melanie’s mom and friend gifted before and after sessions to her as a Baby Shower gift which we thought was so sweet. The first is this maternity session and the second will be done once these two get settled in with their new little one. We’re excited to see them again, this time as a family of 3. But until then, enjoy these images of Melanie’s last few days with a baby in her belly (seriously though, she was due the day after we took these. How amazing does she look?!)…

    A day away from her due date in those heels?? Spectacular! Great shots, maternity/newborn is my favorite stuff. :)

And Juliette makes 3 | The New Olesen Family Sneak Peek

Nate and I don’t usually shoot newborns. We don’t usually shoot much other than weddings and the things that go along with them. But, every now and then it’s nice to do something different. To challenge ourselves in new and different ways. So when Jessica contacted me about documenting their family’s transition from pre-baby to having their world come crashing down around them in an avalanche of love and other equally sweet-as-honey emotions, we were excited to take on the challenge. We met Juliette just a week and a half  after she met the outside world. It was rainy and cloudy and her parents and grandmother were snuggled up in their home. It was beautiful. And Nate and I are excited to share their full post with you later on because Nate shot some absolutely lovely video for you to see. Until then, I leave you with these frames and lyrics from one of my favorite songs about daughters…

I know a girl. She puts the color inside of my world. She’s just like a maze where all of the walls all continually change.
And I’ve done all I can to stand on her steps with my heart in my hands.
Now I’m starting to see, maybe it’s got nothing to do with me

Fathers be good to your daughters. Daughters will love like you do.
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers, so mothers be good to your daughters too.

    OMG Absolutely stunning. I want beautiful pictures of my baby .. when we have them (a few years from now..) You did a beautiful job and their baby is gorgeous and I love her name.. You guys are so talented.. God has blessed the two of you with a gift.

  • melinda:

    the second picture and the last one are amazing! i love how clear and crisp her eyes are without looking like the photographer just felt like going crazy in photoshop.

  • Mikkel:

    Completely precious. You really captured the wonder and amazement of her world, and her “newness,” beautifully. Love the tight shot of her face where you can see all her details, including baby fuzz!

  • Megan Sullivan:

    I definitely teared up at that last one. It’s breathtaking!

  • Ashley:

    What an absolutely, breath-taking beautiful baby! You guys knocked this one out of the park!

  • ohana photographers:

    perfection!

  • Katy (The Balanced Foodie):

    Oh my gosh, she’s so beautiful! I love that picture of here and Steven, so beautiful. I cannot wait to see the rest! Amazing.

  • Mich Bilyeu:

    what a beautiful baby!!!! I LOVE the second picture..the close up of her sweet, precious eyes.

  • Christine:

    These are gorgeous! You should do more new born portraiture :)

  • Zak:

    Awwwww! I love my girl! I love my boy too! :D

  • Tara Hiler:

    These are beautiful!!! I have a feeling you could shoot anything and it would be beautiful though. :)

  • Lindsay:

    Oh my gosh. I love these! I cannot wait to see the full post but I can say this already – I never would have guessed you are new to newborn portraiture! I would really love, love, love for you to take pics of my son and any future babies I have someday. Hopefully I’ll make it home to the states soon and we can come up with a time… :)

Olesen Maternity in Baldwin Park

Dec 2 at 2:36 pm

Baldwin Park | Orlando, FL

I know what you’re thinking… and yes Jessica may in fact be the most beautiful pregnant woman you’ve ever seen. I aspire to be at least half as effortlessly gorgeous as Jessica when I’m pregnant. These two were absolutely adorable, a bit goofy, and completely in love with each other and their soon-to-arrive daughter. We cannot wait to meet her when she arrives! We decided that Baldwin Park was the perfect setting for these maternity photos as the area pretty much fits these two to a T. (Where does that expression even come from?) I feel like everyone I know right now is either pregnant or having babies. I have no idea what was in the water last spring but, my gosh, it must have been potent! ;)

I love incorporating landmarks of life. Like this that will forever remind them of the home that welcomed their firstborn.
