Elbrie is the most beautiful pregnant woman and her sweet little boy will be here in just two weeks! This was caught in the last rays of sunshine of the last day of summer.

I think this is your most gorgeous work to date! You’ve outdone yourself!!

Thank you! So do I. We were chasing the sun like nomansbusiness but we couldn’t catch it. So we pulled off the road and shot those last ones in about 5 minutes. She’s so beautiful.

Wow. I echo the ‘you outdid yourself’.
Truly, exceptionally, gorgeous.
LOVE!

She’s beautiful.

Amazing, Amazing Photos. Elbrie is a friend so I know how stunning she is but these photos totally capture not only Elbs and Marcus love, but the wonderful bump just perfect. Beautiful.

simply stunning – Elbrie, you are so beautiful, these pictures capture your true beauty. xx

Stunning, these take my breath away. . . How did you get the sky and the lighting on her skin both so perfect. Did you use any other kind of light to get this effect? Her skin is creamy and beautiful. Do you mind me asking what actions you used? I see alot of awesome photography often but feel many pictures have skin blown out and really white. These are Perfect.

Ashton and Dylan, although when I had my twins, I was too exhausted to even think of names as was only told they were coming 10 days before they were born ……..but oh what joy they have brought me over the last 35 years. Good luck and enjoy them xxx

They’ve finally been born! And the names are…drum roll…CALEB and SETH! If you’re a winner, email me your full-sized jpg or raw and we’ll see what I come up with! (please remember that photo editing only makes an already good photo great. Please only send me an image that’s in focus with no major problems like devil eyes :)
