Shauna: Maternity Session

I haven’t been really blogging our work since there has just been too much to blog. (I really promise a Nickerson Studio’s blog is coming. Wow, I feel like I have been saying that for years…probably because I have.) Just when we FINALLY see the light at the end of the tunnel for the launch of our new site, we are SLAMMED with work. But it’s a very good thing! We are having fun and feel truly blessed that God has allowed us to be successful photographers.

I do want to highlight my gorgeous sister in-law’s mini maternity session. This wasn’t planned, but we all happened to be in New England together and she just so happens to be the most glowing 34 week pregnant woman. So, I had a free 15 minutes and I ran to Shauna’s room and was like “hey, do you want to do a little maternity session?” Shauna was game and we were snapping pictures in no time.

During the entire shoot she kept complaining that she looks horrible in pictures. Clearly, you all will disagree with that. These pictures came out stunning!

I LOVE THIS ONE!

Their adorable 80 year old neighbor has the cutest red barn and old tractors sitting in front of it. Really, you can’t ask for a better backdrop.

Shauna-you did fantastic! I can’t wait to meet my new nephew or niece!!!!


The Fair!

Who knew the local fair could be so much fun! We all decided to go last minute while we were up in New England and it sure was fun.

Abel had a BLAST! He keeps talking about the fair. Of course, he had fun. He got to stay up late, eat cotton candy & chocolate covered bananas and ride a motorcycle. What could be better than that!

Yes, Sage lives in this front pack. I need my hands free to chase Abel. She doesn’t seem to mind and does her best napping in there. The girl prefers to nap on the go which kinda works well with my crazy schedule.

My niece Ruby who gets cuter by the minute!

A failed attempt at getting a picture next to the biggest pumpkin.

He desperately wanted to play all the games, but at $6 a pop we just couldn’t swing it.

We were DYING laughing at Abel riding this motorcycle. He was really trying to be a big guy and not show he was afraid, but then after a few minutes he warmed up to it and was having the time of his life.

Notice his tongue. This kid is hilarious!

A little New England

We snuck away to New England for a few days. We try to go every Fall (usually in October) but since we are super busy this Fall we decided to make the trip early. It was great especially since the whole gang was in town (a hard task now that some are married, some have kids, some in college) so that made it extra special.

The annual apple picking adventure with The Nickerson gang.

And I’m pretty sure he couldn’t be any cuter! God had to make this one extra cute since he gives his momma lots of trouble.

And as always…..lots of images coming soon!


Our family/maternity session

The camera was turned on us!

I will say Seth is so much more comfortable behind the camera. I kept having to grab him away from the camera and come take some pictures with me. He doesn’t realize how adorable he is. When I was editing these pictures, I was stopped in my tracks and thought to myself, “hubba hubba…I have a hottie hubby!” :)

Thanks to our dear friend and photographer, Heather Neely, we were able to pull off this mini session. She brought her family to the field and the boys ran around with the ticks as we manage to get a few pictures. I’m really happy with how they came out and am just glad we were able to keep Abel still for a few family pictures. (something that is almost next to impossible!)

I’m 8.5 months pregnant in these photos. Just a few more weeks folks till our little girl is here. Can you even stand it? We can’t! I’m so over this whole pregnant thing and I think Seth would tell you he feels the same way. I’m sure you’ll notice Poggy has grown a bit since the last picture session of my belly.

Thanks to the Heather’s hubby, Nick, for making Abel laugh so hard.
