SOLANA BEACH, CALIFORNIA - THIS MATERNITY SHOOT! I am just gonna start off by saying how magical this shoot was. It was perfect! I had this beautiful family on a perfect day at the beach. It was great. That is saying a lot because I hate beaches! But not this day, Joana's maternity shoot made me rethink my stance on beaches. Especially when you got herons photobombing my shoot, pretending they are storks. Yeah! The stork thought it could fool us and made us believe it would be delivering the baby Joana is expecting.

Nevertheless, there were some fantastic moments captured in a lifestyle of photography, and of course, some majestic portraits of this beautiful woman in her majestic state of maternity. It always feels great seeing your work once processed, and this one was no exception.
