Alyssa & Paul’s Open Field Sunset Matertniy Session : San Juan Capistrano, California

Maternity session heaven over here! It's truly incredible the friendships that happen along the way of living wholeheartedly, purposefully and authentically. ⁣A few weeks back, I hosted the first ever "Sisterhood Circle" which is a monthly women's group meeting around real, vulnerable realities.
Alyssa is one of the amazing ladies who blessed us with her presence and in doing so, reminded me of how we met. She called me years ago looking for another photographer to work on a styled shoot with her. Although I couldn't be a part of the shoot, I most definitely wanted to meet her. Upon our coffee date, I witnessed this incredibly sincere, dedicated, determined photographer so radiantly beautiful inside and out.
That, well, that was the beginning of an incredible working relationship and friendship. Over these past two years, Alyssa has second shot on weddings so dear to my heart and most recently I got to second shoot and help guide her through one of her biggest weddings ever!
And then, as if that wasn't already magical enough, I had the honor of documenting her maternity portraits with her sweet hubs and growing little man! The weather was picture perfect, the lighting put on just the right dance, and their excitement and love radiated with each and every time capsule.
​Congratulations dear souls! I couldn't be happier for you both! Thanks for the honor of getting to document this sacred time in your lives. ⁣
