I’ve had the pleasure of working with Aimee and her family before, and this time was no different! I had a wonderful time with her maternity photoshoot! Her baby girl was so cute and posed so well for pictures! Clearly she’s a natural. :)
We did our session at Manassas National Battlefield Park, and the scenery made for some incredible pictures! The day was nice and warm, which is rare for March in Virginia. And the light was PERFECT.
I started by lining everyone up for some family shots. We got some pictures of Aimee and her daughter and got a few photos of them playing around in the woods. We had fun with some blue smoke bombs to celebrate baby Levi!! After that we went down to the creek and that was my absolute favorite! Aimee dressed in a gorgeous burgundy dress and her daughter and husband dressed in burgundy and red to match!
We did family photos along the creek bed and then got a few of just momma and her little girl and few of just mom and dad. We ended the session with solo pictures of mama and they were awesome!
The lighting was glowing and the creek is always one of my favorite spots to photograph maternity sessions. We got a few pictures on this old rickety bridge which I just loved.
By the end of the session I had packed up my gear for our hike back to the car.
As we were all walking back to the parking lot, the field where we had begun the session was so bright and filled with beautiful golden sunlight that I just had to pull out my camera for a few more pictures!
We stopped in some long grass framed by the tree-line and the light came through and made it look like the sky was on fire, it was so gorgeous and just perfect for some final shots!
All in all, this was a very fun session, with a great family. I got to do a session for them two years ago at a tree farm. It was great to see them again and capture these special photos for their family.
