Jessica’s Maternity Pictures {Kellie Rochelle Photography}

I was pregnant with my 6th baby when my friend, Jessica, said I should have maternity pictures done. I hadn’t ever considered it. I mean, I have family pictures that I’m pregnant in, but I had never done a maternity shoot. I loved every minute of it! I ordered a couple of dresses and had my hair done, and Jessica created some amazing pictures! Fast forward a couple of years. Life and all it’s changes gave me the opportunity to repay the favor for Jessica when she was expecting her second baby. For her shoot, we wanted to get capture some images of her in their nursery, then we went downtown for an urban location. Mother Nature wasn’t very forgiving, as the wind was obnoxious and it may have even sprinkled a little. Looking back, I seem to remember a lot of life events by who I was pregnant with at the time, so now I realize the value of having pictures capturing your pregnant belly and details of your life at that time.
