I could have photographed Dusty & Greg all day. Seriously. I loved the way their eyes lit up when they laughed together, the way she reached out for his hand, the way he protectively guided her; not as if she was fragile but in a way that shows that Dusty and their yet-to-be-born daughter are the center of his very existence.
Dusty and Greg were more fun than I could have even hoped for (Who else has offered me candy corn mid-shoot? Future clients take note.) and to witness their interactions with Dusty all adorable and pregnant made my heart feel like it was going to burst with love.
To G&D, happy 6th anniversary next weekend! I can’t wait to see where life leads you. I heart you both very much.



Love, love, LOVE




Dusty has the most perfect baby bump in the whole world.


They are the kindest, most generous people. I really adore them.









i’m yours,

Oh my goodness Mel–these are so wonderful! It feels a little self-indulgent to gush over them, so I’ll just say that I absolutely LOVE them, and THANK YOU so much–we will cherish these pictures forever! And what you wrote about G and I made me nearly cry (damn pregnancy hormones, lol!). You are too sweet. It was so great to meet you and you were absolutely fantastic to work with. I hope we can do it again sometime! Thank you so much!
So beautiful! I love the train shot! :swoon
You got candy corn mid shoot? Maybe I need to pick up some pointers from you! they’re beautiful.
Just lovely! ALMOST makes me want to be pregnant!
Wow–she’s really beautiful. Makes me want to color my hair red. We all wish we looked that fab when pregnant and had someone like you to save those precious days for always. Looks like you captured such a happy family. Can’t wait till you do the baby pics. Those will be even more amazing. Lovely.
