Maternity Photos

So the only nice thing about the lamest blizzard ever a few weekends ago was that our photography friends had to come to Sioux Falls early to avoid missing work due to the blizzard, and that gave us an opportunity to take some maternity photos. And I am In.Love. with them. I'm not exactly sure what we'll end up doing with the photos (Darrell thinks it will be weird to have pictures of pregnant me around the house once I'm no longer pregnant), but I'm glad nonetheless that we were able to have a chance to document this journey. And you know, have a little fun canoodling with each other in front of the camera since usually Darrell is behind it (or we're taking self-portraits). Here are just a few of my favorites (all images courtesy of and copyrighted by Korzan Customs):

This next one might be my all-time favorite... Totally can't take credit for the idea, but I'm so glad I stole it!

We also had to pay homage to one of my favorite wedding photos. Here's the photo from our wedding day:

And here's the updated "baby" version:

Lest you think we managed to act normal and respectable for the duration of our photo shoot, here's a few out-takes to prove otherwise:

We were supposed to act serious for this photo. Safe to say we don't do "serious" very well

We were just testing out the playground equipment to make sure it will be safe for baby. This was not for personal pleasure whatsoever. I swear.
