Lora and Chris Maternity Shoot
October 05, 2008
Lora and Chris asked me to shoot photos of them during their pregnancy. Actually, we’re shooting 3 times. Just before Torin arrives, a few weeks after his birth, and at about the 6 month mark.
I’m really looking forward to shooting this series of photographs. One, because I’ve never done maternity shoots before and two, because Chris and Lora are counseling Joanna and I before we get married in March!
We started out in Torin’s room that they set up just yesterday but since it was so small, we only took a few in there before heading out to the National Arboretum. I haven’t shot there in a while so it was nice to get back there on such a beautiful day!

These pictures are awesome! I love the nursery. It so cute, especially the pictures of the books and ducks. Lora, I am jealous over how perfect your belly is. These pictures really radiate your love for each other, and Torin. You all are going to be a perfect family. Not too much longer. Congrats!
To the photographer: You did a phenomenal job! I love the black and white pics, especially the one w/ Lora near the columns where you can see her reflection in the water. Awesome!

The pictures are very beautiful and very loving. They made me cry. They will a beautiful keepsake reminder of this wonderful time of waiting with great anticipation and wanting for Torin. I can’t wait to see you holding him in your arms. Mike and I love you and are so happy to be a small part of your lives. We continue to keep you guys and the “little man” in our prayers. Donna
