I am over the moon thrilled for my dear friend Alaina and her sweet husband Philip who are expecting their first baby in a couple of weeks. It was such an honor for me to capture their love for each other and their baby bump (affectionately hashtagged #ittbybittyIsbouts on Instagram) in their beautiful new home.

I consider Alaina a very good friend who I met last summer when we shot this together and have had tea more times than I could count. In fact, a group of us recently celebrated this wonderful time in her life by joining together for afternoon tea. She's an absolute beauty inside and out, and her personality radiates sunshine.

I had such a fun time photographing these two. Oh, and a special shout out goes to their cats Moose and Isabella (loved them!) Also, their nursery is seriously the most gorgeous I've ever been in.

Thank you guys for having me photograph this special journey for you and I hope you enjoy these as much as I do...xo
