Aubrey & Kurt - Maternity Shoot

I met Aubrey and Kurt a little under 2 years ago. I entered the location where I bank and was changing my address information with the teller when she asked what I did for work. I told her I was a wedding photographer. She then mentioned she was getting married that following January and was looking for photographers. We decided to meet for coffee so she could look over my work and they decided to hire me. What I didn't know then was that was the beginning to a wonderful friendship with their family and mine. We did their engagement sessions in the summer and fall of 2008. They flew me down to San Diego to photograph their wedding in January of 2009 and my husband officiated their ceremony which was very special! Through the summer of 2009 and between them moving they lived with us for a short period of time which was a fun experience as my two year old son adores them! Now, our dear friends are expecting their first child in just a few short weeks. I'm SO beyond excited for them as they will be wonderful parents. And although I haven't made it public on my blog yet, I'm only 4 weeks behind her in pregnancy -- we're also expecting a baby and I'm 33 week along today and she's 37 weeks in these photos (and she looks fantastic, might I add!!).

That all to say, this couple is very near and dear to my heart. I have built more strong long term friendships with my clients these past few years here in Colorado than any other time in my life and I'm so thankful Kurt and Aubrey are among them. Thank you Aubrey and Kurt for trusting me to document these precious moments in your life. I feel like blessed to be able to watch on the sidelines as your family grows and life continues on. Can't wait to meet your little girl in just a few short weeks. Love you both!
