Some photoshoots just feel like home—and this session with Hadleigh and Graham was exactly that. Their warm, inviting space made the perfect backdrop for capturing this sweet season of anticipation as they await their baby girl. We spent the afternoon in their nursery, surrounded by soft light, laughter, and the comforting familiarity of home.

Their black lab, Bruin, was more than happy to be part of the session, lounging at their feet and making sure she was never far from the action. I loved capturing the natural moments between them—no stiff poses, just real connection. We played music, shared stories, and enjoyed the simple joy of being together.

Hadleigh’s radiant smile, Graham’s quiet excitement, and Bruin’s happy presence all blended together into a relaxed, love-filled experience. These photos are more than just images; they’re memories of a home where love is growing—and soon, so will their family.

This session was a beautiful reminder that the best photos often happen when you’re simply being yourselves. I’m beyond grateful to have captured these precious moments for Hadleigh and Graham before their world becomes just a little bit sweeter.
