Spending an afternoon with my sister and niece at a gorgeous nursery was truly a treat for me. My sister (Megan) and her daughter (Lena) had a sweet mommy+me session before their family grows in a couple of months, adding a baby boy this summer. Given the slow start to spring, we opted for a greenhouse session. Megan is a true nature enthusiast, so it only made sense that her session take place among the flowers and green foliage. Lena’s eyes lit up searching for the perfect flowers and wandering down aisles upon aisles of flowers and various plants. It was a cool day, but the greenhouses were warm and vibrant and the most perfect location for these two beauties.

I spent the morning curling their hair and selecting their dresses. When we arrived, Lena was a bit camera shy, so we let her take the lead and take us where she felt pulled. As you can see below, she eventually took to my camera and we had a fun little adventure weaving in and out of the plants and potted flowers. Lena is so excited to meet her baby brother and so are we. Megan, I am so happy I had the opportunity to capture this time leading up to the addition to your sweet family. I love all of my sessions, but this one will always hold an extra special place in my heart for obvious reasons. I love capturing you as a mother. I love capturing the curiosity and excitement in Lena. I love watching you nurture your daughter and I am so excited to watch you become a boy mom! So many adventures ahead, and I am so glad we get to do this together.
