A Special Mommy & Me Session: Ashley & Tanner | Lowe's Home Improvement Garden Center

I have had this idea for so long and have been DYING to do a session at a garden center. A special thanks to Ashley & Tanner for joining me at the butt crack of dawn at Lowe's to get these GORGEOUS shots! Tanner's overalls and Ashley's dress and hat are all from Mariah Springs Photography Wardrobe Collection, and let me tell you, styling this session was SO MUCH FUN. I had a vision, and it came to LIFE! BEAUTIFUL!

THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS! I can't even. I have found a NEW LOVE for engagement photography because of these two. We had a BALL. I will be shooting their wedding this year, and I seriously cannot wait. They are laid back, creative, fun, and did I mention BEAUTIFUL? That's right. You too, Austin. You guys have stolen my heart completely, and just looking through your images can make anyone feel the incredible love between you two.

Patiently waiting for Baby Bryant! And I cannot WAIT to find out if this baby is a boy or a girl! Eeek! So exciting. It won't long before we will all know! I SO enjoyed this session with my good friend and amazing photographer, Megan Bryant! As photographers, we are often working hard to create beautiful images for other people, but we have to remember that WE, ourselves, need beautiful photos too! I am SO happy that I had the opportunity to provide those to this loving, kind, and FUN family!

These maternity sessions are making my jaw drop! Look at all of the gorgeousness. I seriously cannot wait for this precious baby's arrivals so I can take some sweet Mommy & Me shots and some Daddy kisses and some little toes along with that sweet little face! There is no doubt that this child will be gorgeous; I mean, look at the parents! Stunning! Loved everything about this session! 

A Very Special Maternity Story: Summer | Mono/Di Twins | Mariah Springs Photography | Danville, Virginia Photographer

A Very Special Maternity Story: Summer | Mono/Di Twins | Mariah Springs Photography | Danville, Virginia Photographer

It was a Sunday. I had just come home from church and was stressing about who knows what—the laundry, work, my child, the dog. I never really check my inquiries on Sundays, but for some reason on this particular Sunday, I sat down at my computer to check them. It was then that I met Summer. It was then that I hung my head in tears and prayer for her, for our world, for all of the strong Mamas out there that I admire so much, and it was then that my troubles became nothing. I snapped into reality and was incredibly humbled, moved, and in awe of Summer and women who endure such tragedy.
