I think I look at things a little differently now. I have been a mom for 8 years, but as time has gone by, as much as I hate to admit it, I had forgotten the feelings of being pregnant, and the excitement of being a new mom. Having had my youngest son just 7 -months ago I have been reminded. I may not be a new mom, but I have been pregnant for the last time. And that's a feeling that I never even thought about experiencing. 

So now when I have the honor of taking the portraits of expecting moms and new moms, I may not show it on the outside, but on the inside I'm an emotional wreck. I love their beauty, I love the happiness that seeps from their soul, I love the enthusiastically waiting look in their eyes and the expressions they wear. Being selected as the photographer for expecting moms and new moms, is nothing short of a true honor for me. 

This may not have been the first time I worked with Jessye, but this time I got to see her in a different light. Jessye is expecting her second child. And as she is every day, these pictures show that she couldn't be more beautiful.
