I don’t know what was in the water a few months back… but I’m doing a whole lotta maternity pictures lately! I’m so thrilled that the weather is finally good enough to get out without freezing to death. When we did Marci and Aaron’s session I really “encouraged” doing an outdoor session. Its great to be outside again!! Marci really wanted a field picture, but we’re just limited on fields this time of year. Most were mowed down and haven’t yet really started to grow. But I was bound and determined to give her something sorta unique, and I hope I succeeded. (you’ll see what I’m talking about below)So have you seen the movie Big Fish? If you haven’t you should. I’m not a big movie person (in fact I NEVER go to the movies. No lie. The last thing I saw in the theater was Tropic Thunder). But the movies I do watch occasionally influence me artistically. And so when I was thinking of what would work for her session, and work with the Spring season, I thought of this movie. Here’s the pic that was my inspiration:And here’s my meager interpretation of it. It wasn’t meant to look exactly like that. I just was influenced by that scene. I hate it when “artsy” people talk like I’m talking. Its super annoying. I’m gonna shut up now.

Marci, you’re such a gorgeous Mama-to-be! Can’t wait to meet that new baby!!
