We absolutely adored this sweet baby boy and soon to be big brother! We shot this family’s maternity session at Raven’s Roost Overlook in Lyndhurst, Virginia inside Shenandoah National Park. This overlook is steps from the parking lot making it THE BEST place for epic maternity photos with ZERO HIKE. Maternity photos are important for so many reasons, not only to celebrate Mom, all her hard work and beautiful pregnant body, a mere blimp in time she’ll always want to remember but maternity photos are also for your child. When our own son was around 2 years old he started to notice our maternity photos that were hanging on our bedroom wall and say “That’s me in Momma’s belly!” Your child is going to LOVE these photos as well because they are the very start of their history, they photos of the beginning of your love for them. Your baby will also cherish your maternity photos and they will be a part of their life forever. So treat yourself to hair and makeup and get those maternity photos taken, print them out and hang them on your wall too, you won’t regret it!
