Early last week, I drove down to Marietta, Georgia to photograph the fun-loving Jose and Melissa. I've known Melissa for a long, long time now, as she is my high school friend Ashley's aunt. She was always up for having a couple of teenagers crash at her Atlanta apartment, showed us the best restaurants, and took us to the coolest concerts. Now, she and her husband, Jose, are expecting twin boys, and I was so honored to be able to document this exciting moment in their lives. We began their session in the backyard of their beautiful home...

Jose and Melissa's first babies are their pets, and I love including the furry family members in a lifestyle session like this one.

We couldn't let the afternoon go by without a great shot of the papa-to-be.

My friend and Melissa's niece Ashley made this fun canvas for the nursery... she's so crafty! Be sure to check out her Etsy store here

Next, we headed down to Marietta Square for a few more photos just before the rain.

Isn't Melissa absolutely beautiful as a mommy-to-be?!
