We became friends back when she was planning her wedding. She contacted me because at the time we were looking into purchasing a photobooth-you know the “legit” photobooths. Turns out we never went thru with it but ever since then we’ve second shot for each other at weddings, celebrated birthdays, and now that she’s moving into the “mommy” role.  We are so excited for her that Joelle and I wanted to photograph Courtney’s baby belly for being such a great friend!

Joelle was Courtney’s wedding photographer and I essentially met her thru Courtney on the day we all traveled together to Pittsburgh to a photography workshop. Oh yeah, all three of us are photographers! 🙂 We try to make a date to get together every few months to catch up on business talk, find out what’s been going on in our personal lives and sometimes……we shoot! 🙂

We all met up at Joelle’s studio in DuBois, chatted, ate lunch, laughed and took lots of pictures! I might be biased because she’s a friend, but I think Courtney is one of the most beautiful pregnant woman I have seen.

The whole family! Courtney, Brian and Dolce Peter……and soon…baby Chandler!

and I saved my favorite’s for last…….GORRRRGEOUS!!!

 

I am in LOVE with these images. They were actually not planned and I think that’s why I love them so very much. She purchased these pieces from a vintage store to use on her shoot. She was putting the finishing touches to the outfit when I saw how gorgeous the light looked. We told her to stay right there and began shooting! She’s a sexxxy mama!!

I know Courtney is going to be a fantastic mother and I can’t wait to meet baby Chandler. Good god that kid’s going to have a ton of photos!! 🙂
