When Ashlie gave us a call, she shared that she was looking for someone to capture her and her husband Scott as they both were about to be parents to twin boys. She shared that they had been wanting children for some time and that she was now finally a few months from delivery. It was a very special time for them and they wanted some special images to help them remember the excitement, joy, and in some ways . . . relief in being pregnant. Kim really hit it off with Ashlie on the phone and they talked about what they wanted in the session. I learned that Scott was an avid Pirate fan which endeared me to him immediately. They are young, in-love, and crazy excited about their twin boys, Davis and Hudson, due November 3rd. We spent some time in their home, and on the ECU campus. They were a lot of fun and their excitement and laughter was contagious.
Scott had requested some shots at the ECU football stadium, while Ashlie wanted some at the Cupola. As a huge fan myself, I wanted him to have an image that would combine two of lets say his . . . top three loves . . . ECU football, Ashlie, and (not pictured . . . but present . . . Hudson and Davis) . . . and not necessarily in that order :)
Every pregnant woman has what's called the 'pregnant glow'. It is a beauty all its own. Ladies and gentlemen . . . the next four images show the 'glow'.
I love the way Scott looks at Ashlie. He did it all day.
Once we were out on campus, I tried to insert a little of my idea of a unique CSM Photography Maternity Session.
Ok, I gave in and did the heart on the belly shot. Some types of shots are timeless and are just plain cute. Yes, I said cute.
To Ashlie and Scott: Kim and I had a blast photographing you both. Thanks for trusting us with this very special season in your lives. I'm always touched when our clients intrust us with their most precious memories and ask us to capture them. We can't wait to meet Hudson and Davis.

You guys did great on this shoot. I love the ECU stadium shot and really liked the perspective in the pictures of Ashlie laying down by herself. Oh and the lighting, arrangement and colors in the photo of them under the light in front of the cupola are amazing. What a great way to capture the two of them and their love for each other, love for ECU and their excitement and love for their growing twins.
