A few weeks ago, one of my best friends, Julie (the boss babe behind Young Wild & Friedman), and I were texting about her maternity session. She asked where we should do them, and I made a suggestion, to which she replied, “GALVESTON!?!” I had to send her photos from my sister’s engagement session to convince her that it was a good idea, as this local beach isn’t known for being exceptionally beautiful (but it photographs well!). I am so glad we decided to go ahead and make the drive to the ocean, because it was one of the most fun evenings I’ve had in ages. We laughed so hard as we drove, scarfed down Mexican food, but most especially while taking photos. But when it came time to give me a serious soft smile, gosh, she nailed it. I was freaking out as the photos uploaded one-by-one to my computer on Sunday evening – Julie is just so stunning and pregnancy looks really, really good on her. My dear (and super talented) friend, Brittany of Butter Artistry, glammed Julie up for the shoot. She did such a good job making Julie feel her best! Professional hair and makeup makes such a big difference when you’re having your photos taken.
Julie borrowed my Pink Blush maternity dress and also my Gigi Pip hat – both looked gorgeous on her! Without further ado, here is my gorgeous best friend, 34 weeks pregnant with her bookend baby girl! I cannot wait to meet the sweetest, littlest Friedman so soon.
