oh baby

This is some serious good stuff. A good friend of mine is about to have her first baby. That in itself is exciting, but on top of that she had me out to her place to take some pictures, and it was amazing!! They live on eight acres full of a mini train track, complete with bridges, tunnels, and a skate park right across the street. So, take a cute couple, up to anything I had to throw at them, and this property...and you get some magical shots...look out people, there are a lot of them (and I could have posted SO MANY more!!)...

We started out in the house,


Then set up the back drop before heading outside (seriously, how cute are they?!?)


And then we headed out on the property, where the magic happened. Check out this tunnel, I loved it (in fact I may talk them into letting me come back with some other willing subjects...)




Then onto the bridge. Some of my favorite shots were there, and here are two of them:




Then we crossed the street (where we took some other sweet shots) to this fun graffiti park.


LOVE this one


Then we let dad off the hook and did a few with just the mom-to-be (very soon!!!)




And finally...back home to snuggle.


I think I exhausted them, she told me they went to bed early that night! haha. Becs, I hope you are happy with your sneak peek. You are beautiful, and I cannot wait to meet this little baby that you are growing :o) Can't wait for you to see the rest of them! Let me know when you're coming over :o) (in case I needed a draw)

Thanks Tanya!
Nope, I don't know who that is. I have a few different action sets that I used with these. But thanks for the compliments (I had a great subject!)
