A few months ago, MckMama stopped in Dallas during her family’s summer RV trip around the country.
She was offering photoshoots for locals, and I jumped at the chance to have our photos taken by one of my blogging idols.
Jennifer was so much fun and so nice. She spoke to us during the whole shoot, putting us at ease and finding common ground between all of us.
My baby belly wasn’t as pronounced, so we just got a few maternity photos. I’m really happy with how they turned out, and wanted to share some of my favorites with you.
I love that we have these photos to remember life as a couple. I love photography, and capturing moments for my family, but that often means that I’m the one behind the lens and not in the photos. This weekend will definitely be a memory I will cherish forever.
When was the last time you had photos taken of your family? Do you treasure them?

Great pictures!
Those pictures are gorgeous! I think our last professional family pictures were our wedding, but we did take lots of pictures together at the zoo for our 3rd wedding anniversary back in May. And I’m SO EXCITED about the Easy Canvas picture!!! 😀 Thanks for the opportunity chica!
I felt you should know that MWOP is coming to your blog, and going back to theirs to say disparaging remarks about you and your photos.

You two look adorable!!!
Anonforsafety,
Where are these disparaging remarks? I only see comments where they say the photographs aren’t great, but they’re a cute couple.
AnonForSafety,
Thanks for alerting me to the comments of that post. People really can be horrible. I can’t believe there is a site entirely devoted to criticizing Jennifer. It makes my heart hurt.
They weren’t that mean to me that I can find, except “gagging” about me thinking of Jennifer as my blog idol. I don’t see where they called us a cute couple, Sally, but there are more than 800 comments and I could’ve missed it.
It really saddens me that people think the anonymity of the Internet entitles them to be mean and horrible. I’m glad my readers are such a positive and uplifting group of people. Thanks for that.
Sally,
Found that comment further down in the comment thread. It seems my post is in there several times.
Thank y’all for your support of me and my family. I can’t imagine having a site like that about us!
Have a beautiful day, everyone! 🙂
You two clearly adore one another! I have rarely seen such sweet love and tenderness (genuine) in a photoshoot.
Your baby is so blessed.
You two are so adorable! And I must say, I love the shirt you have on in this photo. What a lovely way to commemorate your first pregnancy!
You guys are so sweet together.
The photo looks beautiful.

Oops sorry for double posting… Arena!
I love those pictures! You both look so happy. I’m glad you got to be on the other side of the camera to document this time in your lives.
I’m really belated in saying this but I love the new blog design.
