i was so honored to shoot kristina’s maternity photos. she is 1/3 of 100 layer cake, an awesome wedding blog!
from the splendid natural light in her home, to her fantastically overgrown garden, to her beautifully pregnant self, i was super inspired. i hope these images make you swoon.







I love, love the images. what beautiful light, and adorable outfit (those shoes are soo cute) for the garden pics!
We love them, Jen!!! So pretty. Brock is so excited to order a bunch. Thank you so much for coming over!

gotta love thatcher.
i truly had given up on my winter garden. i was sure the summer corn had sucked up all the nutrients from the soil. so i gave up and ignored it for a month and next thing i knew we had broccoli! cauliflower and cabbage! now lets just see if it grows past this miniature stage and i can cook some fabulous soups and gratins.



That looks yummy. Isn’t it funny, just when you give up on gardens they always surprise you!

The last pic cracks me up! It is like a big exec meeting and the “head hancho” can’t take any more!!! LOL
holly hannah! love them. so classically fox in every single shot. his expression in the final one says so much. love.
rachel,
lol TOTALLY! he was the head honcho with that buzzer. not to mention that group of execs are wack
he really had to keep us in line. at least we were drinking tea and not tequila
sas – you know it!
love fox. and all these pics by the way! <3
