Every year, we do photos at a Christmas Tree Farm, one way or the other!  Sometimes we do mini-sessions, sometimes we book family shoots, but this was the first maternity session at a Christmas Tree farm, and ohmygosh it was breathtaking!  The weather could not have been more perfect either, and I absolutely LOVED that they included their dog in the session!  

(I feel like I write about weather worries during my sessions, but the STRUGGLE IS REAL, PEOPLE!) 

Rachael and her husband John are fairly recent transports to the Portland area from Florida and are expecting their first baby in February!  I can't WAIT to meet their new little one because I friggin' LOVE lifestyle newborn sessions.  Rachael had contacted us through our website a few weeks ago inquiring about Christmas Tree Farm photos and luckily, I knew Grabhorn in Beaverton, OR would be the perfect spot!  We've gotten our Christmas tree there before (and snapped a few photos) and the views into the horizon there are amazing and the owners know what great customer service is about!

They did maternity photos a bit earlier than most expecting moms, but they used the photos as their pregnancy announcement on their Christmas card (how cute is that?!) so their friends and families got quite the surprise this year.  Merry Christmas!
