Nothing says southern Louisiana like Avery Island, the drippy moss, flat land as far as your eyes can see, the smell of muddy river water. I love photographing in Jungle Gardens because it has all of the above. Every time I visit I feel inspired with their lush landscape and scenic paths. This time proved no different. My goal is to create images that are a  reflection on the great place we call home while telling the story of everything wonderful about becoming parents. Bethany and Nick had the most beautiful sunny day for their maternity session. They even brought along their sweet pup, which is always so much fun! I enjoy seeing the connection of a couple in the stage of life before they welcome a sweet baby into the world. Their smiles and pure joy surely showed throughout the session. As always, I am thankful to my clients that let me create my artistic vision and trust in my work. Thank you Bethany + Nick!
