Casie's Maternity Session

I was honored to photograph my cousin before her baby shower a couple weeks ago - and take the grand tour of the amazing downtown Miamisburg, Ohio (I was thoroughly impressed!) for her maternity session. Such a quaint, historic and lively town! There were so many well established small businesses everywhere you turned, and enormous old houses still well maintained, all backing up to a beautiful river view. We were there just in time for a spring festival, which thwarted our plans slightly, but Jeremy was on the ball knowing exactly where we should go to get the ideal settings.

I loved the little alley they picked out; wrapping around the back, it reminded me of something straight out of Tuscany. Minus the stucco. The old church door was gated off for the festival, but even the gate added a nice touch! Finally we ended up at a random green building with red doors, which might have been my favorite of all because you could see the real Casie and Jeremy coming out. Despite the anxiety and uncertainty of becoming first time parents, they embrace each other, admire each other, and if all else fails - make each other laugh.

It was a short but very efficient session, due to the time crunch before the shower. Thanks to their brilliant planning ahead with locations and choosing to have great attitudes in the midst of the stress, they'll have sweet memories to share with their little love coming in June! Great job Casie and Jeremy - we are so excited to meet your precious girl!!
