Friends, I can’t say enough how valuable it is to have someone snap photos of you and your family at significant points in your life! Today I’m reminded of how quickly our kids grow up—it feels like they grow in an instant sometimes. And while you think you’ll remember how you looked and felt when your kid was a toddler, it’s hard to hang on to a fleeting moment like that.

Pregnancies rush by so fast it seems. Maternity shoots are a special joy and pleasure as they mark one little point in time like no other. Soon enough Josh and Lauren’s baby will be changing their lives, but for now, he or she is nestled within Lauren and growing like crazy. What a special time indeed.
