Motherhood in the Garden ~ Black & White

mot_0650

 

Although I am loving all the spring colors popping up, there is just something about black and white imagery that will always have my heart.

Maybe it takes me back to the time of my grandparents’ images that I love to look through. The 30s, 40s, 50s when B&W photography was mainstream. I absolutely drool over the images left by my grandfather (who was a lover go photography as well).

So, even though I have gorgeous images in color of this session that I’ll share later, I really want to focus on the simplicity of these images and the emotions the colorless faces evoke.

Tell me what you think!

Do you have black and white photos framed around your home?

Love, Julie

Nicklas turns TWO! Holland, Ohio Hoen’s Garden Center

nic_0486
Sometimes things don’t go as planned and you have to improvise. The plan was to photograph little Nicklas outdoors for his two year session, but this NW Ohio weather has us all confused on rain, no rain, cool, or warm, so we just went with it! I asked his mama Jordin to meet me at a local greenhouse. I’m so very thankful she trusts me and my crazy ideas/ improvisations.

Instead of cancelling, we made it work! And still “outdoors”!

Nick’s big sister Addy came along and got to share the spotlight a bit!

I got to be there and photograph both of their births and its so fun watching them grow!

This little nugget is growing like a weed and I am so fortunate to be able to capture these moments of her first year!

This is Morgan at 8 months for a lifestyle session in her beautiful nursery with her gorgeous mama!

Jessica {Toledo Maternity session}

JESS0008
One of the things I am MOST excited about capturing for this couple is when they birth their baby and find out the gender!

Yep!! They opted to just wait it out and be surprised at whether its a boy or girl ;)

Sometimes, that very thing is what helps mama get through all the labor!

How did you prepare for your baby’s arrival? Did you have a gender reveal party separate from your baby showers?

Jessica and Ryan are expecting to meet  baby in about 8 weeks!

The Palmer Family. MacQueens Apple Orchard, Holland, Ohio

MacQueens Apple Orchard is one of my favorite places to shop for fresh donuts on the daily, as well as great produce and let’s not forget, APPLES!

I love taking families there to capture some special moments and they always end up buying some awesome treats to take home! Win, WIN!

You’ve GOT to go check out their Applefest this weekend!! Tell them JP sent you! (not my fault if they look at you weird!) LOL
