Sometimes when I'm shooting, it's like all the stars are aligned, everything comes perfectly together and I know this is what I'm meant to be doing.  I've had that feeling very often lately, and I feel so blessed to be capturing some of the most beautiful moments for Texan families.  This is the second pregnancy portrait I have had the pleasure to produce for Lisette.  I love so much that she brought her baby Liana for some beautiful mother daughter portraits as well.  When working with a toddler, it's important to be patient, and have a plan to entertain her while she won't be in every photo.  Lisette brought her sister-in-law, and we shot at a local city park that had a playground.  We took Liana's photos first, and then let her run loose on the jungle gym while my assistant and I focused on this gorgeous mama.  Since it was a scorching summer day in July, we waited until after 7 PM and captured some amazing light glowing over Lisette's growing belly.
