I started dreaming up ideas for this shoot back in early January. The first visions I had were for lifestyle photos in our home. I still hope to bring that idea to life one day, maybe once the baby arrives. I quickly had to shift gears when I realized we were running out of time and money to do necessary house repairs that would make the house presentable enough for pictures. A lot of the rooms are completed now but our bedroom, where I wanted to take the majority of pictures, just recently received its first coat of primer on the walls and up until then was a mess of unfinished drywall. So plan b, I started imagining a bright, fun, downtown styled photo shoot and that's exactly what we did! A close friend and amazing photographer graciously offered to gift us these photos. She'll never know what it really meant to us. We probably wouldn't have been able to have any done otherwise so I'm forever grateful to her for spending an entire weekend day with us (when she's a working mom all week long). Go show her some love on Facebook, Alison Marie Photography or on her website at http://www.alisonmariephoto.com/.
The weather was perfect and even though Abel was feeling less than friendly for the first hour and we lost a third of our balloon supply before taking our first picture she still managed to capture exactly what I'd envisioned. Scroll through and enjoy some of my favorites!
