When Elisha contacted me to get her portraits done, she explained that she'd been working her butt off at the gym to prepare for her friend's wedding and wanted to capture this time in her life. Because she can. And, honestly, I don't see a better reason than that. They'll always be a reason to put off having your pictures taken (like that extra ten pounds). But life gets busy, and before you know it you're left years later with a regret that you wished you'd just done it.

Elisha will look back on these pictures years from now, with her kids and grandkids, and they will say "Whoa, Grandma, you're hot!"

Our session was split between a studio session and on location at Good Harbor Beach and Bass Rocks. Our studio session was what I would called "boudoir", but I saved some of the steamier ones for the imagination!

Enjoy Elisha's "just because" session and don't forget to leave her some love in the comment section below!

It's hard to believe that the little guy we were waiting on during this maternity session is already a year old now. Even though we chose a day in late April for Sarah's maternity portraits, we were met with a stunningly windy (chilly!) day on the beach, so much so that we threw around the idea of postponing. But baby Bear wasn't going to wait, and Momma and Dad didn't have many free days left before his arrival. So Sarah totally "mama-beared" the whole session and made it look like a warm day in August!

I love Sarah's classic maternity style! Her blush pink dress was so dreamy in the setting light at Good Harbor. And I pretty much squealed when I saw the flower crown that she brought with her!
