It was such a joy and honor to photograph my longtime friend Helen for her maternity session at one of my favorite photography locations, the Secret Garden at Huntington Central Park in Orange County.
We’ve known each other for years, and I still remember the conversations we had when we were younger, especially the one where she said she dreamed of having four kids. And here she is now, glowing with baby number four on the way.
Helen is such an amazing mom. I truly don’t know how she does it all with three little ones and another on the way, but she does it with so much grace. Her kids were full of giggles and energy throughout the session (even though she joked they were probably high on sugar, haha). And she and Matt were so sweet together, calm, connected, and full of love.
We also set aside time for a few quiet moments for just Helen. She looked absolutely stunning, confident, radiant, and so at peace in this season of life.
I loved every second of this maternity photoshoot, and I can’t wait to deliver their full gallery.
