Baby Two Bump-53 I shot Brooke and Chance's wedding five years ago. The last two years I have photographed their son Barrett. So when Brooke tells me she was not going to do Belly Bump photos this time around I did not take no for an answer! 

"Please, please come to the studio. Just for fifteen minutes!"

"Ok, but do whatever you want."

That is one of the things I love about Brook. She completely trusts me. In a world of Pinterest she tells me to shut it off and just be me. 

You have to understand. Brook is one of those people that is beautiful inside and out. She has a big heart, is a wonderful mom, and doesn't take enough time for herself as most moms do.

I wanted a little bling and sparkle and makeup! So I tried out Light In The Box and couldn't resist this silver sequin gown! 

Brooke arrived at the studio fresh faced and ready to go, but my makeup artist did a disappearing act! 

We improvised and ran to the MAC counter down the street and left the boys playing trains. They did a great job and we scored some makeup out of it too! 

She slips into all the sparkles and of course little Barrett has to dance with such a beautiful lady even if it is mom.

I found a little off the shoulder dress that seemed a little country to me. A pop of color with flowers in the hair. Hopefully this is a little country, since her husband definitely is, I wanted something more earthy. 

Sometimes Chance shakes his head and looks at me with what I am sure is "This crazy hippie artist hasn't cut off her ear yet." But then he gives me this big, melt your heart smile and goes along with it. If I get that smile you should see the one he gives Brook and Barrett, complete love and joy. 

Last but not least and before I can wear out this pregnant momma, we slip into a pop of sunshine. It's been a cold, grey winter. I NEED COLOR!

Barrett needs one last dance before passing out while Daddy is a little too enthusiastic fanning us to get the hair blowing lol!

They bundle up and head home. Barrett is out like a light by the end of the street.

This is why I love my job.
