Meet the Ackerman’s. The family is expecting their second child later this month. The photography session was done on Saturday, March 28, 2009. The family came to me from a referral. They are a really sweet family and I was totally excited they booked with me. In these maternity photographs below, she’s due later this month.
Fabi warned me about her 2 year old son Noah during our consultation. She mentioned that each time someone wanted to photograph him, he puts his hands in the air and says no. So I went into the session knowing it might be a challenge for me. So I warmed him up by talking and explaining what I was doing as he was asking me questions. “What is this”? I pulled out the camera for the first time and yep, he went into the corner and said no. So I told him how handsome he was and to look at the photograph I had in the camera of him. MAGIC, I was saved. From that point forward he always wanted to view the images. He’s such a great kid and he’s going to be a great big brother! Thank you Noah for a fun day!
I love getting the father of the baby involved. I love seeing that emotional bond between Daddy and soon to be baby. Bryan here is on one knee huging the tummy. I really feel the emotion in this photography. I hope you do, too!
One of my typical photographs is the parents combining their hands to make a heart on the tummy. Since we had Noah (soon to be big brother) I wanted to capture his hands, too. Some times I see my clients photographs and a few of them stick out in my mind. This is one that does this.
The Ackerman’s photograph so well they made it so easy for me. I had so much fun with them! Here’s my favorite family portrait of the day.
Ackerman Family, thank you for allowing me to photograph your family at this special moment in your lives. I can’t wait to photograph your son when he’s born.
