Thomasville Maternity Shoot | Melissa and Steve

Melissa has asked me to do her family pictures for the last few years, and it’s always an honor to get them and to see their family growing up. After all girls, Melissa and Steve were excited to be adding a little boy to their number!

I love including the whole family in a maternity shoot. If you’re wondering if it’s worth getting bump pictures each pregnancy, the answer is yes! Even if your bump doesn’t look much different, it’s a fun time to document your growing family. And it gives you a great excuse to get another beautiful dress to wear.

All of Melissa’s babies have arrived early, so they are no stranger to long hospital stays and NICU visits. While we made sure to get these pictures early enough to not miss the chance, her baby surprised us all by staying in until 38 weeks. What a blessing to finally have a full term baby!
