It had rained for several days in Green Bay before our session and it looked like we were going to get rained out. Luckily, we stayed dry (although the mosquitoes were pretty bad).

Ashley and Elijah have been married for two years and are due to have their first baby in August. Ashley was 33 weeks at the time of her maternity session and she is simply stunning! Since they wanted to keep the the sex of their baby a surprise, Ashley wore a blue dress and a pink necklace. I loved that the colors were meaningful to them.
Ashley said Elijah has been waiting to run to the store to get her something she’s craving but he hasn’t had to do that yet. She craves sweets but she always does, pregnant or not (me too Ashley!).
I love asking my clients if they have any tips for people who are preparing for a session and Ashley’s advice is to “Relax, have fun, and let Ana do the rest…you’ll end up with beautiful pictures!”
