Sara and Alberto: Maternity Portrait in Buford, GA

Sara and Alberto are Having a Baby

“When the first baby laughed for the first time, the laugh broke into a thousand pieces and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies. And now when every new baby is born its first laugh becomes a fairy. So there ought to be”

– James Matthew Barrie quotes (Scottish dramatist and novelist best known as the creator of Peter Pan, 1860-1937)

Don’t you just love that quote? It just creates such a sparkly happy visual.

This is Sara and Alberto. And, as you may have gathered, they are having a baby.

You may remember Sara from a few weeks back when I photographed her baby shower.

Now we are just days (hours?!) away from meeting their new little man. Yep, they’re having a boy.

You can tell that these two really love each other. This is gonna be one lucky baby.

Meeting a couple and doing a photo session with them for the first time is always really interesting and challenging, but in a really fun way.

Sara and Alberto are both very quiet, or perhaps shy, so it took all my worst jokes to draw them out. (Really sorry guys.)

But once they got comfortable, they really glowed for the camera and you can see how sweet they are together.

Sunset photos are just the best. And downtown Buford is pretty cool. There’s some nice spots for photos on the square.

This last one is my favorite. I know, I know.. it’s their feet, but I just really love how much this little detail reveals about them.

He makes her feel safe. He’s going to be a good Daddy. They’re going to be awesome parents.

Congratulations to you Sara and Alberto. And thank you for sharing a little bit of your special time with me. I can’t wait to meet your newest family member.
