This is a solitary extract from a pregnancy shoot I did.
The shoot was very standard in my style: bright, colorful photos. And the couple radiated throughout. Then there was this one photo of the soon-to-be-mother standing in front of the ocean. I looked at it untouched and, in full color, I fell in love. Beautiful blue skies, the ocean, a radiant mom, with her small belly holding their first child portruding just a bit. I loved the photo. Untouched, I was pleased: I felt I was capturing complete joy at that moment. And then I saw the silhouette. Then the image took a left turn.
Love this.
