Crystal Cove Relaxed Maternity Pictures - Montana & Brendan

I had some extra time in my schedule this week and asked Montana if she would come be my muse! 

We met up at Crystal Cove in Newport beach for a creative maternity session! I wanted to embody the joy and anticipation of expecting a baby! I wanted to capture the beauty of a woman’s body. The magic of pregnancy, and growing a child within. 

The supportive role dad plays the whole pregnancy can’t be ignored either. Dad is not only a front row witness to the magic, but the one carrying mom as she carries their baby. 

That connection between the parents-to-be. 

The session ended up being a beautiful blend of all of it. I cannot wait for Brendon and Montana to welcome their baby girl into their family in just a few weeks!! What a special season of life.
